Oleogels are systems traditionally produced by the self-assembly of materials called gelators, which are responsible for inducing viscosity and solid-like capabilities to oil-based systems. The emergent interest concerning oil structuring strategies in food applications is related to oleogels' capacity to undergo structural and textural tailoring, and the possibility of their use in delivery of bioactive compounds.
