After the mixing of the ingredients the mass is homogenized and is subsequently subjected to a heat treatment, comprising warming up to a temperature between 45.degree. and 55.degree. C. while the mass is being agitated and while maintaining a temperature difference between the heating medium and the mass of no more than 10.degree. C., and then to a cooling treatment at a temperature between 25.degree. and 35.degree. C. At that temperature the product is again homogenized, and then pasteurized or sterilized, cooled and aseptically packed, or packed and then pasteurized or sterilized within the package.
