Method for the production of a pasty composition for production of a bone replacement material, comprising at least the procedural steps of: (i) providing particles of at least one calcium salt; (ii) coating, at least partially, the particles of the at least one calcium salt with a saturated fatty acid ester (a) that has a melting temperature of at least 45°C and is selected from the group consisting of glycerol-1,2,3-trimyristate, glycerol-1,2,3-tripalmitate, glycerol-1,2,3-tristearate, glycerol-1,2,3-tribehenate, myristic acid myristyl ester, palmitic acid palmitoyl ester, and a mixture of at least two thereof; and (iii) mixing the particles of the at least one calcium salt, which are coated, at least partially, with saturated fatty acid ester (a), and at least one saturated fatty acid ester (b), which has a melting temperature of less than 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of glycerol-1,2,3-trioctoate, glycerol-1,2,3-tridecanoate, myristic acid isopropyl ester, myristic acid methyl ester, myristic acid ethyl ester, palmitic acid isopropyl ester, palmitic acid methyl ester, palmitic acid ethyl ester, stearic acid isopropyl ester, mixtures of triglycerides of saturated fatty acids with a chain length in a range of 8 to 12 carbon atoms or mixtures of at least two of the components specified above, while forming a pasty composition, whereby the components are contacted to each other in appropriate relative amounts such that a pasty composition is obtained, which contains (α1) 50 to 80% by weight of the particles of a calcium salt; (α2) 0.1 to 25% by weight of saturated fatty acid ester (a); (α3) 15 to 40% by weight of saturated fatty acid ester (b); and (α4) 0 to 10% by weight of an additive, whereby the sum of components (α1) to (α4) is 100% by weight.
