A free-flowing, spray-dried edible powder is preferably made by partially hydrolyzing a gelatin, followed by making an emulsion of the gelatin and an edible oil, followed by spray-drying the emulsion. The method partially hydrolyzes the gelatin so that the weight average molecular weight of the gelatin is between about 15,000 and 35,000. Preferably the vitamin is Vitamin E. Preferably the partial hydrolysis of the gelatin is an enzymatic hydrolysis. |
