THE PRESENT INVENTION ADDRESSES THE PROBLEM OF PROVIDING A PASTE-LIKE OILY FOODSTUFF THAT CONTAINS A PRESET AMOUNT OF FATS AND OILS, CAN BE EASILY HANDLED DURING PREPARATION AND YET HAS A HEAT RESISTANCE AND FAVORABLE MELTING FEELING IN THE MOUTH. THE ABOVE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED BY FINDING THAT A PASTE-LIKE OILY FOODSTUFF, IN WHICH THE YIELD VALUE IS INCREASED WITHOUT INCREASING THE PLASTIC VISCOSITY, CAN BE OBTAINED BY USING A SPECIFIC EMULSIFIER AND THE THUS OBTAINED PASTE-LIKE OILY FOODSTUFF HAS A HEAT RESISTANCE, FAVORABLE MELTING FEELING IN THE MOUTH AND GOOD HANDLING PROPERTIES DURING PREPARATION.
