The influence of fat and emulsifier types on particle size and thermal behavior of aged mixes and the corresponding ice creams was investigated. Mixes and ice creams based on partially unsaturated monodiglycerides (MDG) were characterized by an increased percentage of agglomerated fat globules compared with saturated MDG‐based system. DSC thermograms obtained for refined coconut oil in mix showed a displacement of the main crystallization event toward lower crystallization teperatures compared with fat in the bulk phase. This supercooling effect was more or less pronounced for the three other fats used (hydrogenated coconut oil, refined palm oil, and anhydrous milk fat). In emulsified systems, an additional exotherm was observed that was interpreted in terms of MDG crystallization. The fact that this peak appeared at different temperatures ranging from 32 to 41°C as a function of the fat selection suggested that different fat‐emulsifier interactions would occur. In the case of ice creams, although the water peak interfered with the fat peak, melting DSC curves allowed the discrimination between the fat types used in the formulation
