Popis: W/O/W emulsions were developed as carrier vehicles of FeSO4 in order to allow for the fortification of foods with iron, with reduced loss of sensory quality. The internal aqueous phase ratio and FeSO4 insertion at different locations in the system were evaluated (up to 30 days storage) based on the physical characteristics, therefore it was possible to estimate the kinetic stability of the systems. Sensory perception of the intensity of the metallic taste was also evaluated. The emulsions presented zeta potential values greater than 20.9 mV (in modulus). All systems showed low polydispersity indices (≤0.3) and unimodal size distributions. The emulsions were characterized as non-Newtonian (pseudoplastic) fluids. In addition, they presented a predominantly elastic character (tg δ
