The present invention provides a method for producing a solid roux which has excellent shape retention properties even in summer, does not undergo seepage of liquid oily components to the surface or whitening of the surface, melts well in the mouth and has a reduced content of trans fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. A solid roux base, which contains specified quantities of table sugar and one or more types of sugar selected from among maltose, trehalose, fructose, palatinose, reduced palatinose, maltitol, erythritol, lactitol and sorbitol, is solidified by means of heat treatment at 100-160° C. In addition, solid oils and fats having a relatively low content of trans fatty acids and saturated fatty acids and having melting points of 40° C. or lower are used as the oils and fats for the solid roux.
