International audience. Anhydrous milk fat crystallization was compared either in bulk phase or in oil in water emulsion by studying melting curves obtained by calorimetry measurements. Emulsions were submitted to a high pressure (HP) treatment (200 MPa/10 min). An aging period of 72 h was required to obtain the highest amount of crystallized fat at 4 °C. Emulsification promoted the crystallization of low melting point (LMP) triglycerides. The effect of HP on anhydrous milk fat crystallization depended on the aging time. For short aging periods (30 min and 1 h), HP treatment favored the crystallization of LMP triglycerides, thus amplifying the effect of emulsification compared with the crystallization in bulk phase. However, for a long aging time, i.e. 48 h, the amounts of crystallized matter in emulsion with or without HP treatment were comparable. This result was interpreted in terms of a different polymorphic form crystallizing under HP.
