Yacon syrup, which contains fructooligosaccharides (FOS), was used as a substitute for sugar to make functional healthy sponge cake. Regarding characteristics of sponge cake with various yacon syrup concentrations, height and volume decreased while moisture content increased with increasing yacon syrup concentration. Sponge cake with increasing yacon syrup content showed a greater green-yellowish color. Springiness, cohesiveness, hardness, and brittleness decreased with increasing yacon syrup concentration. Hardness values of cakes made with 100% sugar (YS 0) and yacon syrup substitute for 10% sugar (YS 10) were not significantly different. Overall acceptance of sponge cake decreased with increasing yacon syrup content, whereas those of YS 0 and YS 10 were not significantly different. For storage period, moisture content of sponge cake with increasing yacon syrup concentration decreased during storage, whereas the decreasing moisture content was less than that of YS 0. The color of sponge cake with various yacon syrup concentrations did not change significantly during storage. Springiness and cohesiveness decreased during storage. Hardness increased with storage period, whereas that of sponge cake made with yacon syrup was lower than that of YS 0. In conclusion, sponge cake made with YS 10 is the best to make sponge cake with high consumer acceptance, reduced sugar content, and FOS.

Yetgangjeong is a traditional Korean rice cookie which used rice syrup (Chocheong) to bind fried rice grains. Brown waxy rice and binders prepared using different sugar types and end heating temperatures were assessed to improve the textural properties and functionality and to promote global consumption. Binder was made by mixing different ratios of starch syrup, rice syrup, honey, sugar, and trehalose, and the binder mixture was heated up to a temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ or $105^{\circ}C$. Specific electrical conductivity of binder containing ST (starch syrup and trehalose) showed the lowest values (9.51 and 9.77), and binders containing the rice syrup showed increased values for specific electrical conductivity. The fructose content was higher in the binder mixture containing C (starch syrup and sugar) than in the binder mixture containing ST, but it did not affect the end temperature. Viscosity of the binder was 123.90-175.20 cP and the binder showed higher viscosity at the end heating temperature (EHT) of $100^{\circ}C$ compared at EHT of $105^{\circ}C$. The fracturability of brown rice yetgangjeong prepared using different sugar types was higher at EHT of $100^{\circ}C$ than at that of $105^{\circ}C$ and it was reduced with an increase in the rice syrup content. However, the hardness of yetgangjeong was lower at $100^{\circ}C$, unlike fracturability. With respect to sensory evaluation, its moistness and stickiness decreased, but the crunchiness increased with addition of trehalose instead of sucrose. The overall eating quality score of yetgangjeong was higher at EHT of $105^{\circ}C$ than at that of $100^{\circ}C$ in every experiment and the highest score was found for SHT (starch syrup, honey and trehalose) with 20% rice syrup at EHT of $105^{\circ}C$ (20%RSHT105 (starch syrup, honey, and trehalose containing 20% rice syrup)).

Background: In northern Thailand, the longan flower is the principal nectar source for honey production. Microorganisms play a critical function in the agricultural ecology. The morphological characteristics of fungal species found in longan pollen were studied. Aspergillus spp. were found to be invertase-producing strains and were employed in the longan syrup production process. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of invertase-added longan syrup on the adult honey bee population numbers that were fed by this syrup for 16 weeks. Results: Different fungal species were found in longan pollen samples. Aspergillus was the main genus, with three predominant sections: Nigri, Flavi, and Terrei. Other isolated species were Trichoderma spp., Rhizopus spp., Neurospora spp., Chaetomium spp., Fusarium spp. and Penicillium spp. However, Aspergillus spp. is the only fungal species that produces the enzyme invertase. The invertase-producing strains belonging to the Aspergillus section Nigri were found to be A. niger LP5 with an optimum activity at pH 6.0 and 60℃. When A. niger LP5 invertase was used for longan syrup processing, the highest levels of glucose (3.45%) and fructose (2.08%) were found in invertase added longan syrup (C), while fresh (A) and boiled longan syrup (B) had lower contents of both sugars. The sucrose content was detected in (A) at 4.25%, while (B) and (C) were at 4.02% and 3.08%, respectively. An appropriate amount of sugar to feed and maintain the honey bee population was considered. The data showed no statistically significant differences between the two selected forms of longan syrup compared to the sugar syrup examined by the adult honey bee population. Conclusions: The main species of isolated fungi from longan pollen were Aspergillus spp. The discovery of an invertase-producing strain of A. niger LP5 has enabled its application for enzyme utilization in the invert sugar preparation process. The adult worker bee populations fed by longan syrup from both boiled and invertase-added sources showed an increasing trend. Artificial syrup made from longan fruit to feed honey bees when natural food sources are limited can be applied.
