대체 감미료를 사용한 Sponge Cake의 특성

The characteristics of sponge cakes containing sucrose or other sweeteners for diabetes mellitus patients were investigated through physical measurement and sensory evaluation. The results are as follows: The physical properties of cake batters and cakes with sweeteners were different from each other in viscosity, specific gravity, standing height, firmness, and springiness. from the result of sensory evaluation, it was shown that cakes containing sorbitol and fructose had high quality even though they were not as good as cake with sucrose. However, cakes with saccarine and stevioside showed much difference compared with cake with sucrose. The characteristics of sponge cake with combined sweeteners (sorbitol plus stevioside) were compairable to those of sucrose cake. There was little difference in specific gravity. The result of sensory evaluation indicated the combined use of both sweetenes could produce bette cakes than either stevioside or sorbitol. Practical utilization of this cake would be provided under the sensory evaluation on these cakes by diabetes mellitus patients.
