This study investigated the quality characteristics of muffins by the amount of addition of suchero (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) as there is increasingly higher interest in functional alternative sweetener. The effects of suchero were evaluated in terms of height, volume, weight, specific volume, baking loss rate, colorimeter, and sensory evaluation. Texture and moisture contents of muffins during storage (1, 2, 3 days) were measured. As the ratio of suchero increased, the volume, specific volume, and weight increased, whereas the volume and specific volume was not significant. During storage, moisture content of muffins decreased significantly. The moisture content of the sample containing suchero was higher than S0(control group). The addition of suchero increased L value of crust and crumb decreased, whereas a value and b value increased. The muffin with 100% of suchero (S100) in test group showed the lowest hardness. According to the sensory evaluation, the muffin with 50% of suchero (S50) showed the highest score in terms of appearance, color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptance, S50 showed the best result and the optimum addition of suchero.

This study aimed to examine quality properties of muffin by the amount of addition of Korean whole wheat flour (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) as there is increasingly higher interest in the healthy food. The effect of Korean whole wheat flour were evaluated in terms of height, volume, weight, specific volume, baking loss rate, colorimeter, and sensory evaluation. Texture and moisture contents of muffins when storage (1, 3, 5 days) was measured. As the ratio of Korean whole wheat flour increased, the baking loss rate and weight increased, whereas the volume and specific volume was not significant. During storage, moisture content of muffins decreased significantly. The addition of Korean whole wheat flour increased lightness (L value) of crust and crumb decreased, whereas redness (a value) and yellowness (b value) increased. The control group (CON) showed the highest springiness lowest hardness. The muffin with 25% of Korean whole wheat flour (WHF25) in test group showed the high springiness low hardness. According to the sensory evaluation, the control group showed the highest score in terms of taste, however WHF25 showed the highest score in appearance, color, flavor, texture and overall acceptance, WHF25 showed the best result and the optimum addition of Korean whole wheat flour. Furthermore, this study proposes the possibility of development of various confectionery with using Korean whole wheat flour.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of muffins prepared with tagatose. The effect of tagatose were evaluated in terms of height, volume, weight, specific volume, baking loss rate, moisture contents, colorimeter, sensory evaluation, and texture of muffins during storage (1, 3, 5 days) and texture was measured using a texture analyzer. As the ratio of tagatose increased, the volume, specific volume, baking loss rate, and height decreased, whereas moisture content increased. During storage, control without tagatose showed the highest springiness lowest hardness by TPA, whereas hardness of muffins increased and springiness decreased as the contents of tagatose increased. Lightness of crust and crumb decreased significantly as contents of tagatose increased. According to the sensory evaluation, the control group showed the highest score in terms of texture but was not significant with 2% tagatose (T2). For appearance, color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptance, T2 showed the best result.
