Hi Stephane,

I think you should be able to this without any problem, however, I am moving your question to our chemistry expert for his evaluation.

One problem and one concern:

1. The oil in a soft gel is not emulsified. It's just like a bottle of vegetable oil, and will not dissolve or disperse well in water. You'll end up with oil on the top and salt water on the bottom of whatever container you add it to.

2. I'm not sure that the fat composition is the same, so even if you dispersed it, you may not have the same product.

Here's a link that speaks briefly about Selco:
