Abstract:BackgroundSolid fats are critical to obtaining a wide range of food texture and quality characteristics, but their consumption is strongly associated with higher cardiovascular disease risks. Structuring unsaturated oils with natural waxes into oleogels (OG) is an innovative solution to develop fat mimics with a healthier profile.ResultsSoy wax (SW), beeswax (BW), and carnauba wax (CW), have been used in binary mixtures of waxes, to understand their interactions and influence on OG quality properties and micro… Show more
