All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. Method of preparing an edible fat continuous emulsion spread comprising 10 to 85 wt % of a dispersed aqueous phase and 15 to 90 wt % of a fat phase, said fat phase comprising:
60 to 85 wt % of a combined amount of liquid oil and structuring fat,
15 to 40 wt % of plant sterol esters,
said method comprising the steps of:
preparing a mixture comprising at least part of the plant sterol esters and at least part of the liquid oil, including subjecting the plant sterol esters to a temperature of at least the melting temperature of the plant sterol esters,
bringing the temperature of the mixture to a temperature below the melting point of the plant sterol esters, and
combining this mixture with at least part of the structuring fat,
wherein the structuring fat is present as fat crystals.
2. Method according to claim 1 wherein at least part of the structuring fat crystals is part of a fat crystal network when combining the structuring fat with the mixture comprising the plant sterol esters.
3. Method according to claim 1 wherein prior to combining the structuring fat with the mixture comprising the plant sterol esters, the structuring fat is part of a mixture comprising at least part of the liquid oil and optionally at least part of the aqueous phase.
4. Method according to claim 3 wherein the structuring fat crystals are prepared from the mixture comprising the structuring fat, liquid oil and optionally the aqueous phase.
5. Method according to claim 3 wherein the mixture comprising the structuring fat and liquid oil further comprises an aqueous phase and wherein said mixture is a water in oil emulsion.
6. Method according to claim 1 wherein the structuring fat is employed as pre-crystallized fat and preferably the pre-crystallized fat is prepared by supercritical melt micronisation.
7. Method according to claim 1 wherein the fat continuous emulsion spread comprises 20 to 80 wt % of the aqueous phase and 20 to 80 wt % of the fat phase, preferably 30 to 75 wt % of the aqueous phase and 25 to 70 wt % of the fat phase and more preferably 40 to 70 wt % of the aqueous phase and 30 to 60 wt % of the fat phase.
8. Method according to claim 1 wherein the plant sterol esters represent at least 7 wt % and preferably at least 9 wt % of the fat continuous emulsion spread.
9. Method according to claim 1 wherein the plant sterol esters have a melting point of less than 70 degrees Celsius, preferably of less than 60 degrees Celsius and more preferably of less than 50 degrees Celsius.
10. Method according to claim 1 wherein the fat phase comprises less than 30 wt % saturated fatty acids and preferably less than 25 wt %.
11. Method according to claim 1 wherein the fat continuous emulsion spread comprises poly glycerol poly ricinoleate, preferably the amount of PGPR on total product is 0.05 to 1 wt %, more preferably 0.05 to 0.5 wt % and even more preferably 0.1 to 0.4 wt %.
12. Edible fat continuous emulsion spread comprising 10 to 85 wt % of a dispersed aqueous phase and 15 to 90 wt % of a fat phase, said fat phase comprising:
60 to 85 wt % of a combined amount of liquid oil and structuring fat,
15 to 40 wt % of plant sterol esters,
obtainable by the method of claim 6.
