Spoonable or spreadable compositions containing less than 80% fat are disclosed. Such compositions comprise water, fat, micro gel particles, a protein and a de-stabilizing emulsifier. The aqueous phase of the composition forms a continuous phase with the fat phase as a continuous network therein, giving a bi-continuous structure with the microgel particles dispersed in the water phase.

Low fat spoonable or spreadable food products

A pourable, edible, low- or zero-fat emulsion comprising a continuous non-gelled aqueous phase and a dispersed phase of gel particles, wherein the gel particles occupy from 20 to 70% of the volume of the aqueous phase and the gel particles comprise hard particles of biopolymer gel and/or soft particles of biopolymer gel.
