摘要

The invention relates to edible fat powders having a full width at half maximum of the first order long spacing X-ray diffraction peak of 0.17 to 0.80 degrees and a free flowing density of 10 to 350 g/l; with the proviso that when the free flowing density is equal to or greater than C, the full width at half maximum is equal to or greater than ((A * free flowing density) + B), wherein A is 0.0005625, B is 0.213 degrees and C is 90 g/l. The invention further relates to a method of preparing a fat continuous spread comprising the use of such edible fat powder.
