The invention provides fat-continuous emulsions containing medium melting gelling agents, i.e. those with a softening point of >33.degree. C. and a sharp decrease in gel strength at 45.degree.-70.degree. C., the gel strength below the softening point being 0.1-30 N/cm.sup.2. Suitable gelling agents include e.g. carrageenan/locust bean gum mixtures.
