Abstract: To provide a powder emulsifying agent composition having such a low bulk specific gravity that it is suitably stored and transported, having high water dispersibility, and being produced at high efficiency (in particular, drying efficiency), a method for producing a powder emulsifying agent composition, and a food including a powder emulsifying agent composition. A powder emulsifying agent composition includes a saccharide (A), an ester (B) that is at least one of a sucrose fatty acid ester (B1) or a glycerin fatty acid ester (B2), and an inorganic salt (C).

Abstract: Provided are: a powder emulsifying agent composition which has improved dispersibility and is capable of providing food with excellent texture; and a production method by which this powder emulsifying agent composition can be obtained easily. An emulsifying agent composition that contains (A) a saccharide, (B) a glycerol fatty acid monoester and (C) a lecithin, in which the phospholipid content is 90% by mass or more and the total content of phosphatidic acid and a hydrogenated product thereof is 5-30% by mass, is used. This emulsifying agent composition is obtained by spray drying an aqueous dispersion that contains the components (A)-(C).
