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.

The effect of Pakchoi addition on the quality characteristics of sponge cake was investigated. Pakchoi sponge cake was prepared with different ratios of Pakchoi powder (0, 3, 6, and 9%). The specific gravities of the batter with Pakchoi powder were higher than control. pH of the batter ranged from 7.43 to 7.74, and the values were lower than control. The specific volumes of sponge cake were gradually decreased by the increasing additions of Pakchoi powder. Crumb color values of lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased by the addition of Pakchoi powder, while yellowness (b) value was increased. In texture analysis, hardness, gumminess and brittleness of sponge cake were increased by the level of Pakchoi powder, but there was no significant differences with control and 3% Pakchoi sponge cake. In the sensory evaluation, 3% Pakchoi sponge cake was better on taste, texture and overall acceptability, while 6%, Pakchoi sponge cake was better on color and flavor. Consequently sponge cake quality with 3% Pakchoi powder was considered the best.

This study was performed in order to investigate the quality characteristics of sponge cake made with Laminaria japonia powder. To evaluate the physical and sensory analysis, Laminaria japonia powder was added to wheat flour in various ratio (3, 5, 7, 9%, w/w). The specific gravity and loss rate increased with the addition of Laminaria japonia powder. The crude protein and ash levels in the sponge cakes increased linearly with the addition of 0~9 g of Laminaria japonia powder/100 g of wheat flour. For the crumb color values, lightness (L) and yellowness (b) decreased with the addition of Laminaria japonia powder, whereas redness (a) significantly increased (P<0.05). In the texture analysis, the hardness, gumminess and chewiness were increased; however, the cohesiveness and resilience were reduced by the addition of Laminaria japonia powder. When the sensory characteristics were evaluated, 5% Laminaria japonia sponge cake showed the highest sensory properties, except for color. Therefore, the results suggested that 5% Laminaria japonia sponge cake could be helpful in improving the physical quality as well as the taste.

In this study, sponge cakes were prepared with substitution of 5, 10, 15, and 20% banana powder. The specific gravity and viscosity tended to increase as the ratio of banana powder increased. The foaming stability was highest at the 10% substitution level. The control group had significantly higher moisture content and volume index than the banana powder samples. The crust color values (a, b) decreased significantly with increased content of banana powder, but the a value increased. Crumb colors values (L, b) decreased as banana powder content increased while the a value increased. In terms of textural characteristics, the samples containing 5, 15, and 20% banana powder had significantly higher hardness than the 0 and 10% samples. Fracturability and resilience were maximal with 15% and 5%, respectively. Adhesiveness and chewiness were not significantly different among the samples. In the sensory evaluation, scores for banana flavor, coarseness, color, flavor, softness, and overall acceptability increased as the level of banana powder content increased. Sweetness was not significantly different among the samples. The control group had significantly higher egg-flavor as compared to the samples containing banana powder. The results indicated that substituting 10% banana powder to sponge cake is optimal for quality and provides a product with reasonably high overall acceptability.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of sponge cakes in which erythritol were added in order to supply less calories. The sponge cakes were prepared with erythritol as replacement for sucrose with different ratios from 0 to 50%. The specific gravities of the batter with erythritol were higher than those of plain control batter and increased by substitution ratio. The cake volumes were also decreased by the replacement of sugar to erythritol. The addition of erythritol decreased moisture contents of the products. The crude ash and crude protein contents of the cakes were decreased by the substitution ratios. In texture analysis, hardness, gumminess, and brittleness of sponge cake were increased as increasing erythritol were added, while springiness was decreased. Cohesiveness showed no significant differences among the substitution ratios. In the sensory evaluations, the cakes with erythritol revealed high overall eating quality, especially the cakes with 30% erythritol were preferred for taste, odor, texture, and overall acceptability. The results show that the ingredients in sponge cakes were the most recommendable with the substitution ratio of 30% erythritol.

This study was performed to examine the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of the sponge cakes containing different concentrations (2-10%, w/w) of aronia powder (AP). The specific gravity of the dough and the baking loss rate were significantly increased with higher AP content. The specific volume, height, volume index, and pH were significantly decreased with the increase in AP. The lightness and redness values increased, while the yellowness values decreased with increasing amounts of AP. Textural characteristics, such as hardness, gumminess, and chewiness significantly increased on addition of AP. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the cakes increased significantly with the increase in concentration of AP. In sensory evaluation, the group with cakes containing AP at 2% concentration was ranked higher than other cakes with respect to all parameters, except for color. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that sponge cakes prepared with 2% AP is the most suitable product, based on its sensory characteristics and antioxidant activities.

The objective of this study was to determine the optimum manufacturing conditions of whole egg powder with high foaming property sufficient for making sponge cakes. Whole eggs were either desugarized and/or adjusted pH before spray-dried at a temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. The physical properties of the cake were measured, and sensory evaluation was conducted on a 9-point scale. The pH and specific gravities of the foam and batter made from desugarized egg powder did not differ from those of the control, whereas batter made from commercial powder experienced significant loss of cake characteristics. The pH adjustment did not improve the foaming properties of the egg powders. The volume and textural properties of the cakes made from spray-dried egg did not differ from those of fresh egg. The taste and sensory characteristic scores for fresh egg, desugarized whole egg powder, and commercial powder were 5.00, 4.78, and 1.89, respectively. These results indicate that egg powders desugarized and spray-dried at $70^{\circ}C$ are sufficient for making sponge cakes with acceptable physical and sensory attributes.

This study was performed to examine the quality characteristics of the sponge cakes with different contents (2-10% (w/w)) of lemon grass powder (LGP). An increase in LGP content in the cake led to a significant increase in the specific gravity of batter, baking loss rate, redness, hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity of the cakes and a significant decrease in pH, moisture content, specific volume, height, volume and symmetry index, lightness, and yellowness of the cakes. Springness and resilience did not show any difference between the cakes. The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of LGP up to 2% did not cause a significant negative effect on the consumer acceptances in all attributes. The sponge cakes with 2% LGP can be recommended for manufacturing bakery.
