Abstract

A particulate solid fat composition comprising coconut oil is prepared by a method comprising heating a fat composition comprising coconut oil, cooling the melted fat composition with stirring to provide a substantially uniform solid fat composition, and chopping the solid fat by a food cutting device under chilling conditions at a temperature low enough to form a a substantially uniform particulate solid fat composition wherein at least 90% of the particles have a particle size of from 1.5 mm to 26 mm. The substantially uniform particulate solid fat composition is substantially compositionally uniform, or is substantially visually uniform, and/or is substantially uniform in color. This particulate solid fat composition is mixed with a hydrated plant protein composition under chilling conditions at a temperature low enough to maintain the particulate nature of the solid fat composition to form an animal meat mimic.
