The effect of sugar alcohols in the preparation of acceptable low methoxyl pectin(LMP) jellies were studied. Sensory scores analysis, Hunter's color parameters and texture profile analysis using universal testing machine were performed. The composition of sweetners used in this study were 100％ sucrose, 75％ sucrose and 25％ maltitol, 50％ sucrose and 50％ maltitol, and 50% sucrose, 25％ maltitol, 12.5％ sorbitol'and 12.5% mannitol. LMP jellies with 100％ sucrose showed the strongest sweetness among them. Other sensory characteristics of LMP jellies were regarded as same. Hunter's value of lightness, redness and yellowness of 100％ sucrose jellies and jellies substituted with maltitol up to 25％ were not significantly different, but those of LMP jellies substituted with 50％ sugar alcohols were higher(p<0.01) than other 3 types of jellies. As substitution ratio was increased, springiness and chewiness were lower(p<0.01). Fracturability(p<0.01) and hardness(p<0.05) of jellies made of 100% sucrose and 75％, sucrose and 25% maltitol showed higer value than the other jellies. Springiness of jelles sweetened with sucrose and 3 sugar alcohols was the highest(p<0.05). Replacement of sucrose by sugar alcohol did not influenced on gumminess and cohesiveness of LMP jellies.

Replacement of sucrose with sugar alcohols in high methoxyl pectin(HMP) jellies were studied. HMP jellies were sweetened with 100％ sucrose, 75％ sucrose and 25％ maltitol, 50％ sucrose and 50％ maltitol, and 50％ sucrose, 25％ maltitol, 12.5％ sorbitol and 12.5％ mannitol. The effect of sugar alcohols in HMP jellies were investigted. There was only slight differences in sweetness intersity in HMP jellies. Color(p<0.05), texture(p<0.01) and preference(p<0.01) of 100fl sucrose jelly were significantly higher than other Jellies sweetened with sugar and sugar alcohols mixtures. Hunter's L(lightness), a(redness), b(yellowness) values of 100％, sucrose jellies and jellies substituted with maltitol up to 25％ were not signignificantly different. But as the ratio and the number of sugar alcohols used for substition were increased, L, a and b values had been lowered signigicantly(p<0.01). Instru-mental characteristics of jelly texture were examined. Hardness of 100％ sucrose jelly sweetened with sucrose and 3 kind of sugar alcohols were higher than others(p<0.05). As substitution ratio was higher, springiness and chewiness of HMP jellies were lowered(p<0.01). Springiness of HMP jellies indicated positive correlation with general acceptance of sensory scores at 5％ significant level. Brittleness, gum-miness and cohesiveness in all types of jellies were not significantly different.

Fructo-oligosaccharide and isomalto-oligosaccharide were used to replace 10%, 20%, or 30% of the sucrose in cake. Replacement with either fructo-oligosaccharide or isomalto-oligosaccharide resulted in cakes with higher volume, browner crust, yellower crumb. Cakes baked with oligoaccharide were softer than 100% sucrose cake. During 9 days storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$, the hardness of both 10% fructooligosaccharide and 10% isomalto-oilgosaccharide cakes was higher than that of 20% and 30% oligosaccharide cake was higher than that of 10% fructo-oligosaccharide cake at the end of storage, there was no difference in hardness among 10%, 20% and 30% isomalto-oligosaccharide cakes. Cakes substituted with isomaltooligosaccharide for sucrose at the level of 20% and 30% or with fructo-oligosaccharide at the level of 30% were significantly moist compared to control. Replacement of sucrose with oligosaccharide, except with fructo-oligosaccharide at the level of 30%, did not affect significantly overall likeness of cakes.

To investigate the optimum ratio of sucrose replacement with high intensity sweeteners, the sensory characteristics and consumer acceptability of coffee drinks containing sucralose and acesulfame-K were studied using descriptive analysis and consumer testing. The relative sweetness of the sucralose and acesulfame-K to sucrose were 600-700 and 200-400 times greater, respectively, within the coffee drink system. The sucrose-replaced coffee drinks containing 100% sucralose, as well as mixtures of sucralose/acesulfame-K in ratios of 75/25 and 50/50, showed sensory profiles that were more similar to those of the original 100% sucrose coffee drink, which had a greater sweet taste, vegetable cream, caramel flavor, viscosity, and mouthcoating. These samples were not different from the 100% sucrose sample in terms of overall consumer acceptability.

The effects of replacement of sucrose with isomaltooligosaccharide(IMO) on physical, sensory and textural characteristics of high-ratio cakes were investigated. As IMO level increased, the specific gravity of batter decreased and the moisture content of crumb increased. A higher degree of IMO replacement for sucrose made cakes softer and more moist. The 40% and 60% IMO replcement cakes showed good acceptability. The hardness, chewiness and gumminess measured by texture analyzer were decreased with increasing IMO level.

This study was conducted to investigate the use of sugar alcohols as alternative sweeteners for replacing sucrose in sponge cake. The sponge cakes were prepared with only sucrose or a 50% replacement of sucrose with various sugar alcohols (erythritol, sorbitol, and xylitol). The specific gravity of cake batter containing only sucrose was significantly higher and the viscosity was significantly lower than those containing sugar alcohol (p<0.001). Among sugar alcohols, xylitol was the most similar to sucrose. The thermal characteristics, as assessed by differential scanning calorimetry, showed that sucrose delayed gelatinization of cake batter more than sugar alcohol, as the onset temperature and the peak temperature of cake batter containing only sucrose were higher than those containing sugar alcohol. The moisture content of cake containing sorbitol was the highest and that containing only sucrose was the lowest among cakes. The specific volume of cakes containing only sucrose and xylitol were higher and the baking loss rate of those were lower than other sugar alcohols. The volume and symmetry index of cake containing only sucrose were the highest among cakes (p<0.001), and xylitol was similar to sucrose for the above indices. The redness (a) and yellowness (b) values of crust containing only sucrose were significantly higher than those containing sugar alcohols (p<0.001). The a and b values of crumb containing erythritol were the lowest among cakes, showing a pale yellowish color. The microstructure, as assessed by scanning electron microscopy, showed that the cake containing only sucrose had more uniformly and finely distributed pores and a smoother cross section than that containing sugar alcohols. Cake containing xylitol was similar to cake containing only sucrose. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of cake containing only sucrose were higher than those containing sugar alcohols, whereas the adhesiveness of cakes containing sugar alcohols were higher than those containing only sucrose (p<0.01). Among sugar alcohols, xylitol was the most similar to sucrose in textural properties. In a sensory quality test, the tenderness and moistness of cakes containing sorbitol and erythritol were higher than those containing only sucrose and xylitol. The overall acceptance of cakes containing xylitol and only sucrose were higher than those containing sorbitol and erythritol (p<0.001). Thus, xylitol is more appropriate as a 50% replacement for sucrose than erythritol and sorbitol when preparing sponge cake.

The purpose of this study was to investigate replacing possibility of sucrose by sugar alcohols and to establish the optimum formula for the development of sugar cookies. The characteristics of sugar cookies prepared with xylitol, maltitol, lactitol, isomalt substituted for 35, 50, 75, 100% of sucrose were examined through physical measurement and sensory evaluation. The spread ratio of cookies containing sugar alcohols except xylitol was superior to that of control cookies(sucrose 100%) and the use of lactitol increased the spread ratio of cookies. The specific gravity of cookies containing sugar alcohols except xylitol was lower than that of control cookies. Therefore spread ratio was in inverse proportion to specific gravity. As the proportion of sugar alcohols increased in cookie formula, surface color of cookies was getting lighter than that of control cookies. Especially cookies containing xylitol, maltitol was getting lighter as the levels of replacement increased. Overall quality of cookies with sugar alcohols containing sensory analysis was superior to that of control cookies.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of replacement of 35, 50, 75, 100% of sucrose by sugar alcohols on the texture of sugar cookies. The moistness of dough decreased as the amount of isomalt increased in cookie formula. From the texture profile for rheological properties of dough, hardness and adhesiveness of dough increased as the amount of isomalt increased. From the texture profile for sugar cookie measured by snap test and probing, hardness and brittleness of cookies increased as the levels of replacement decreased. Especially the addition of lactitol increased brittleness of cookies. In addition texture of cookies was close to control cookie as the levels of replacement decreased.

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.

The characteristics of sponge cakes prepared with replacement of 30, 50, 75, or 100% of sucrose with isomaltooligosaccharide (IOS), fructooligosanharide (FOS), maltitol symp (MS), or maltitol powder (MP), were examined through physical measurement and sensory evaluation. The specific gravities of foams and cake batters were not significantly different among samples (p .0.05). The use of IOS increased the viscosity of cake batter. The cakes containing IOS, FOS, MS, or MP were softer than control cakes (sucrose 100%). Especially cakes prepared with 30, 50％ IOS, or 75, 100％ MP, appeared to be fragile. When increasing levels of IOS or FOS were incorporated in the cake formula, cake crust color was getting darker than that of control cake, whereas cake containing maltitol was getting lighter as the levels of replacement increased. Generally, the volume of cake containing FOS were superior to that of control cake, whereas those of cakes containing above 50% MP were inferior. Sensory analysis of experimental cakes did not show significant differences from the control cake for softness, springiness and gumminess. Sweetness increased replacing the sucrose with FOS, MS or MP (30, 50%) and moistness increased using IOS, FOS, MS, or MP without agreement with moisture contents of cakes. Replacement of 30, 50% sucrose with MS or 30％ with MP did not affect greatly the physical measurements or sensory characteristics studied.
