Process for the preparation of an edible fat-containing product wherein a fat-containing fraction (a) of the composition which is to constitute the product is cooled to cause crystallization of part of the fat and a fraction (b) of the composition is mixed with fraction (a) containing partially crystallized fat in a mixer comprising two closely spaced mutually displaceable surfaces, each having a pattern of cavities which overlap during movement of one surface with respect to the other, between which surfaces the fractions to be mixed pass, and according to a preferred embodiment 10 to 99,99% of fraction (a) is mixed with 90 to 0.01 % of fraction (b), calculated as volume% on the total composition. |
