The invention relates to an aqueous dispersion of fructan-containing particles, wherein the D 50 of the fructan-containing particles lies between 2µm and 50µm and the solids content of the aqueous dispersion as a whole lies between 61 wt.% and 80 wt.%. The invention further relates to a process for the preparation of an aqueous dispersion of fructan-containing particles, comprising: a) the step of bringing fructan and water together to form a mixture； b) optionally a hydrolysis step, wherein a portion of the fructans in the mixture is hydrolysed, such that at the end of this step b) between 5 wt.% and 25 wt.% of all fructans in the mixture are essentially non-soluble at room temperature； c) optionally a purification step, wherein the mixture is brought into contact with a purification agent, followed by removal of the purification agent from the mixture； d) a concentrating step, wherein the mixture is concentrated, such that the solids content lies between 61 and 80%, whereby the aqueous dispersion is formed.
