The invention relates to a process to manufacture a water-in-oil emulsion, comprising ⋅10 to 85 wt. % of liquid oil; ⋅0.5 to 50 wt. % of fat powder comprising hardstock fat; ⋅10 to 85 wt. % of a water-phase; ⋅0.005 to 5 wt. % of lecithin; and ⋅0.01 to 5 wt. % of monoglyceride; comprising the steps of: 1. providing a solution of at most 5 wt. % of the liquid oil, based on the total amount of liquid oil, comprising at least 50 wt. % of dissolved lecithin, based on total amount of lecithin; and at least 50 wt. % of dissolved monoglyceride, based on total amount of monoglyceride; wherein the temperature of the solution is at least 50 degrees Celsius; 2. providing an oil-continuous system comprising at least 75 wt. % of the liquid oil, based on the total amount of liquid oil, wherein the system has a temperature of from 0 to 20 degrees Celsius; 3. contacting the solution provided at step ‘I’ with the system provided at step ‘2’; 4. mixing the mixture provided at step ‘3’ to provide a water-in-oil emulsion; wherein any remaining ingredients are added whole at step ‘2’, step ‘3’ or step ‘4’ or added in parts in any combination at step ‘2’, step ‘3’ and step ‘4’. The process of the invention results in water-in-oil emulsions with an improved stability and a reduced batch-to-batch variation in stability.

The present invention relates to a stable emulsion of an aqueous phase in a lipid phase wherein non-fatty cocoa solids and/or non-fatty milk solids are present in the lipid phase. The present invention further relates to a process for making an emulsion, said process comprising adding the lipid phase in two steps.

Disclosed herein are plant-based whippable topping emulsions. In particular, described herein are plant-based emulsions that do not contain any of the eight major food allergens. In addition to plant-based products, the emulsions may generally contain vegetable oil and one or more other components such as surfactants, sugar, stabilizers, thickeners, and flavoring. Also disclosed herein are methods of making and methods of using the plant-based milk whippable topping emulsions.

A vegetable edible fat composition has a vegetable fat present in an amount of 50 to 90 percent by weight of the edible fat composition, an oat-derived material having dry matter in an amount of 1 to 10 percent by weight of the edible fat composition, and water. The pH of the composition is in the range from 4 to 6.5, and the composition is in form of an emulsion having an aqueous phase of water in a fat phase of the vegetable fat. The composition can be used as a spread or food preparation. A process is for manufacturing a vegetable edible fat composition.

A method of making an oil-and-fat capable of being used as a non-tempering hard butter of a non-lauric acid type, having a sharp melting property (meltability in the mouth), a good compatibility with a cacao butter and a low trans-fatty acid content, includes fractionating an oil-and-fat A comprising a first non-laurin-based oil-and-fat containing 50 to 100 mass % of SUS type triglyceride and a non-laurin-based transesterification oil containing 12 to 38 mass % of SSU type triglyceride or an oil-and-fat B obtained by partially hydrogenating the oil-and-fat A so as to obtain a soft portion.
