This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substitution of the flour with coffee silver skin (at the levels of 0%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) on the characteristics of yellow layer cake. The specific gravity of batter increased significantly as the content of silver skin increased. The specific volume of cake decreased significantly as the content of silver skin increased. The volume index decreased significantly as the silver skin content increased, while the symmetry index and uniformity index were not influenced. It was found that control had the highest cake indexes. Texture analysis showed that control had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. Hardness value of cakes was increased by adding silver skin; however, the springiness value of cakes with silver skin decreased during storage. According to sensory evaluation, experiment groups scored the higher points in texture acceptance than control. Above all, SS5 scored the highest points in aroma, taste and SS3 scored the highest points in appearance and overall acceptance.

The Purpose of the study was to examine the formative characteristics of silver fashion design by analyzing the silhouettes, colors, patterns, textures, and details in the brands for silver generation in Korea. Photographs of silver generation women's brands were collected to be analyzed with a focus on formative characteristics using SPSS packages. The result revealed the common formative characteristics of madam-brands and designer boutique brands-they both use semi-fitted silhouette with lighter colors for upper garment, and darker shades for lower garment. When it come to textile, upper garment was mainly made with hard and soft textile. In patterns, plain, flower print, and asymmetrical patterns were used for upper garment, and plain patterns for lower garment. Despite the gap in price, there were few differences in madam-brands and designer boutique brands with partial differences in the kinds of patterns, the proportion of patterns, the details such as zip-ups and buttons, beads, laces, and ruffles, and the use of different textiles for each brand. In conclusion, it is important to develop design that helps cover the body shapes of silver generation customers while highlighting the unique design of each brand for the development of the silver fashion.
