Abstract
The present invention is concerned with a plastic dispersion containing from 5-65 wt. % of a continuous fat phase and from 95-35 wt. % of a gelling polysaccharide containing dispersed aqueous phase, wherein the gelling polysaccharide is selected from the group consisting of agar, pectin and mixtures thereof and present in a concentration exceeding the critical concentration and which aqueous phase contains further 0.004 to 10.0 wt. % of protein. We have found that the present dispersion displays essentially the same in-mouth break down behaviour as a gelatin based dispersion.
