Abstract
The invention relates to the encapsulation of oxidizable lipids. In particular, the invention provides an oil-in-water emulsion comprising droplets of a core lipid coated with nanoemulsion droplets, wherein the nanoemulsion droplets comprise a surface lipid coated with protein. The emulsions of the invention provide an oxidatively stable form of the lipid, which can be added to foods and cosmetics requiring a long shelf-life.
