Various aspects relate to a spread composition, methods of making the same, and food products including the same. A spread composition includes an oil phase. The oil phase includes a plant-based oil. The spread composition also includes plant-based oil bodies emulsified in the oil phase. The plant-based oil bodies are derived from the same one or more plants as the plant-based oil, a different one or more plants, or a combination thereof. The spread composition includes a continuous phase that includes the oil phase. At least some of the plant-based oil in the oil phase is not naturally present in the plant-based oil bodies.

Disclosed is a method for preparing an emulsion gel-based fat substitute with adjustable phase change and use thereof, belonging to the field of oils and fats and food processing. The emulsion gel-based fat substitutes are prepared by using an oil-soluble polysaccharide, oil-soluble small molecule gelling agent, water-soluble large molecule gelling agent and vegetable oil as raw materials, dissolving the oil-soluble polysaccharide, small molecule gelling agent and water-soluble large molecule gelling agent in the heated oil and water phases, mixing and emulsifying the oil solution and aqueous solution to obtain an emulsion, and then gelling the emulsion upon stirring and cooling. An oil-soluble polysaccharide reduces the amount of oil-soluble small molecule gelling agent, an emulsion gel-based fat substitute containing trans-free low-saturated fatty acids is prepared, and the overall oil content of the emulsion gel is reduced by adding the water phase gelled with the water-soluble large molecule gelling agent.

A method for preparation of a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion includes providing caramel, one or more phenolic compounds, vegetable oil and vinegar. The caramel is prepared from one or more monosaccharides and/or one or more disaccharides and water, and heated for a time period. The method includes mixing the caramel with one or more phenolic compounds with vegetable oil.
