The aim of the study was to characterize the gelling effect of candelilla wax (DW) using different types of cold-pressed vegetable oil (sunflower oil, olive oil, walnut oil, grape seed oil and hemp seed oil). The structuring of the oleogels was achieved by hot incorporation of oil with different percentages of carnauba wax, as follows: 3%, 5% and 11%. Characterization of the oleogels was done by determining the chemical and physical properties of the oleogels, the oil binding capacity and the texture of the oleogels were determined. The color differences were highlighted by the CIE Lab color scale for evaluating the lightness index (L*), components a and b. Candelilla wax showed a strong gelling capacity of over 99.70% for the addition of 11% and capacity minimum of 74.34% for the 5% addition. The value of the peroxide index decreased when the oleogelator concentration increased. The rheological properties were determined by measuring the viscoelastic parameters. The frequency sweep test showed that the storage modulus, loss modulus and viscosity of candelilla wax oleogels were increased with increasing wax concentration. The obtained results demonstrate the fact that candelilla wax can be used in small concentrations to obtain oleogels with a solid texture and easy to incorporate into food products as solid fat substitutes. Harder oleogels, obtained by adding 11% wax, can be effective in delaying oil oxidation during storage. Therefore, these oleogels illustrate that candelilla wax can be of great value in the food field.
