Double emulsions

A water-in-oil-in-water (W1/O/W2) emulsion comprising a lipid phase (O) and a water phase (W2), the lipid phase being distributed inside the water phase, wherein the lipid phase contains a plurality of water droplets (W1), wherein the water content inside the lipid phase is between 10 wt % and 80 wt % relative to the total weight of the lipid phase, wherein the water droplets are stabilized inside the lipid phase by a first emulsifier composition and a second emulsifier composition, the second emulsifier in range of from about 0.1 wt % to about 10 wt % of the emulsion, wherein the first emulsifier composition comprises an Acetone-insoluble (AI) component containing a Phosphatidyl Choline (PC), a Phosphatidyl Inositol (PI), a Phosphatidyl Ethanolamine (PE) and a Phosphatidic Acid (PA), wherein PC is in an amount by weight of at most 15.5% relative to the total weight of the first emulsifier composition and wherein the first emulsifier composition is characterized by a phospholipid weight ratio R of at most 65%, the ratio R being defined according to Formula 1:
