Abstract
The invention provides edible water-in-oil-in-water emulsions containing an emulsifying system in which the continuous aqueous phase has a pH between 6.5 and 2.0, contains between 10 and 80 wt. % of an oil and of which the discontinuous phase is at least 10 wt. % of the discontinuous aqueous phase and oil phase taken together. Preferably an o/w emulsifier such as protein, in particular egg yolk, is present and also a w/o emulsifier. The oil phase preferably has no solid constituents at 20.degree. C. The emulsions are useful as foodstuffs such as sauces and dressings, and in soups and ice-cream.
