Low fat products such as 40% low fat spread should exhibit
similar characteristics as full fat products. However, usually low
fat spreads are more unstable due to the lower content of fat.
Starches and hydrocolloids are normally used as fat replacement.
The consumption of reduced and low fat products has increased
and intensive research is made in processing and ingredients in
order to achieve better low fat products.
Processing
The ingredients for the aqueous phase are mixed and heated
according to the specification of the stabilizer used.

The ingredients for the fat phase are melted under agitation,
typically the highest melting fats are added first and liquid oil
last. The fat phase is then tempered to approximately 5-8C
higher than the melting point of the fat phase.

Emulsifiers, which are mixed into liquid oil in the proportion 1:5,
are heated and melted at a temperature approx. 5-8C higher
than the melting point of the emulsifiers, and added to the fat
phase.
Flavor and colors are added according to solubility.
The aqueous phase is added under agitation to the fat phase.
