In the search for another appealing source of future food to cover the increasing need for nutrients of a growing global population, this study reviewed the potential of insects as human food. This study assessed some common edible insects, but concentrated on mealworms. Insects, especially mealworms, have a similar or higher nutritional value than many conventional food sources. The present study aimed to promote health through the development of blueberry cake by Mealworm Powder (Tenebrio molitor Lavare). The results of Sensory evaluation comparison of Blueberry cake to different levels of mealworm powder. The sensory evaluation showed that sample 3 had the highest color, taste, texture, and overall texture except flavour. Therefore, mealworm blueberry cake made with 60g of mealworm powder showed the best results. The results of analyzing the general components of the Mealworm blueberry cake showed more than two times higher Crude protein and less than half Crude fat compared to control blueberry cake. It is believed that the addition of mealworm powder means that the protein in the cake, a high carbohydrate food, has been strengthened. This is the development of bakery products with both nutritional excellence and symbolism, and it is believed that wheat worm powder is a good food material as a favorite food, not a hateful food, which will improve consumer awareness of edible insects.

This study investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of rice pound cake prepared with various amounts of blueberry powder. The weight of rice pound cakes with additions of 2~8% blueberry powder increased from 418.58 to 420.50 g. The volume and specific loaf volume of rice pound cakes prepared by adding blueberry powder were lower than those of the control. The baking loss rate for the control was 7.72% and that of rice pound cakes prepared by adding blueberry powder decreased by 6.98~6.56%. The moisture contents of rice pound cakes added with blueberry powder were higher than the control. The pH levels for rice pound cakes prepared with blueberry powder ranged between 6.47 and 7.58 and that of the control was 8.11. The microstructural observation by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed well developed air cells of control. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 13.6%, whereas pound cakes prepared by adding blueberry powder ranged from 35.2~78.8%. The "a" value of redness was increased, but L and b value were decreased significantly by additions of blueberry powder. The full textural properties of rice pound cakes were being significantly increased by additions of blueberry powder. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall preference for pound cakes showed that 4~6% of substituted sample groups were higher than those of others. The results of this study suggest that additions of 4~6% blueberry powder was the best substitution ratio for rice pound cakes.

The purpose of this study was to promote consumption of rice through production of jeungpyun added with blueberry attracting attention as a functional food material and to develop a functional blueberry supplement suited to the preference of Westernized consumers. For that pupose, we performed physicochemical quality test and sensory test after preparing the jeungpyun added with blueberry powder based on a ratio of 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% of rice flour. The results of this experiment can be summarized as follows. When the addition of blueberry powder increased, the moisture content in jeungpyun decreased, but there was no significant difference between the samples. The lightness and the yellowness related to chromaticity decreased and redness increased when the addition of blueberry powder increased. The pH of the dough in jeungpyun increased significantly (p<0.001) when addition of blueberry powder increased. As the fermentation progressed, the pH tended to decline. The volume of dough decreased when addition of blueberry powder increased. The volume was the highest after the first fermentation, and decreased after the second fermentation. Viscosity decreased significantly as the addition of blueberry powder increased, and increased as fermentation time increased, and decreased after the third fermentation. A test was conducted to determine difference in characteristics, and the results showed that the color intensity, cell uniformity, blueberry flavor and sweetness were strong when the addition of blueberry powder increased. The results of preference test showed that JB3 containing 3% blueberry powder had the best appearance, flavor and overall acceptance.
