Physicochemical and sensory properties of sponge cakes using 2 kinds of domestic wheat flour(white flour, whole wheat flour) and imported cake flour were investigated. In the proximate analysis, white flour had higher contents of water and protein compared with those of imported flour. Whole wheat flour had the highest contents of protein, lipid and ash. Regarding the batter, imported flour sample showed lower specific gravity and higher viscosity than those of domestic flour sample, implying that there was more air incorporation and higher batter stability. As a result, imported flour batter produced larger cake compared to that of domestic flour batter. But indexes of symmetry and uniformity showed no significant difference among the samples. In textural analysis using rheometer, cakes with imported flour were softer compared with that with domestic flour. In gumminess and brittleness, cakes with domestic white flour showed the highest value while that with the imported flour showed the lowest value. For the color measurements of cake crumb, no significant difference in DE was found among the samples. Regarding the cross-sections of the cake observed using SEM, imported flour produced cake with smaller and more even air cells compared to that with the domestic flour cake. In sensory evaluation, cakes with the domestic white flour showed the highest moistness value. But there was no significant difference in springiness, firmness, adhesiveness and ease of swallow among the samples. In conclusion, cakes with domestic white flour and whole wheat flour were as good as that with imported cake flour for the sponge cake preparation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of yellow layer cake with added buckwheat flour. The physical properties of the cake flour with added buckwheat flour were tested by RVA, farinogram, and alveogram, and then, after making the yellow layer cake, the samples were analyzed by rheometer. We found that the pasting temperature decreased with the addition of buckwheat flour in the cake flour, but peak viscosity, holding strength, and final viscosity increased. For the farinogram, the flour containing buckwheat showed increases for consistency and water absorption, but stability was decreased. The $P_{max}$ of the alveogram was not consistent according to the addition of buckwheat flour to the cake flour. The L- and G-values showed decreases, but they were not significant. After making the yellow layer cakes with added buckwheat flour, crumb softness was analyzed with storage for 7 days. The hardness and Max. G of the yellow layer cakes with buckwheat flour increased, and the highest values were after 1 day of storage. However, springness decreased with the addition of buckwheat flour as compared to the control, and showed the highest value at 7 days.

A domestic wheat variety (Geurumil flour) was evaluated for the properties of white layer cake, and compared to a commercial soft wheat flour. Geurumil flour contained more protein, ash, and lipid contents than commercial soft wheat flour. Very little difference in cake batter pH was observed between soft wheat flour and Geurumil flour, and the addition of emulsifiers tended to decrease the pH of Geurumil cake batter The specific gravity of the cake batter was lower in Geurumil flour than in soft wheat flour, and decreased effectively by the addition of emulsifiers due to batter aeration. Specific loaf volume was influenced by the addition of emulsifiers and demonstrated the highest values at the level of 1 ~ 2%. Addition of Ester-400 (monoglyceride) showed better cake properties in terms of volume, symmetry and uniformity index than sucrose-fatty acid ester did, and thus appeared to be more effective in improving baking performance. The changes in firmness of cakes during storage at $25^{\circ}C$ were observed, and Ester-400 showed some Positive effects on retarding cake staling.

Soybean rice cake, which is often used in Hamkyungdo, is well hewn for a good taste and the slow firiming rate. Since soybean rice cake may taste different according to the amount of ingredients, this study will make a test of the taste and properties of two groups of soybean rice cake. One is prepared from rice flour mixed with yellow soybean and peanut flour at several rate, and the other is prepared from rice flour mixed with oil extracted from yellow soybean and peanut, the containing amount of which is the same as that of oil ingredient contained in each flour. Rice cake prepared mixed with extracted soybean oil shows better characteristics than that which is prepared mixed with soybean flour containing the same amount of oil. The result by sensory test reveals that the element which has a great influence on soybean rice cake is oil. Prepared mixed with extracted oil, soybean rice cake tastes best at 6% of oil, while rice cake prepared mixed with flour instead of oil tastes best at 8% of flour. As this study shows that the relation between firiming rate and oil has a significant influence on cohesiveness, moistness, and chewiness, it is needed to further study the effect of oil according to the kinds of the flour of rice or other grains used.

This study was conducted to test the characteristics of dough made with rice flour for preparation of steamed cakes containing rice flour. We used a RVA (Rapid Visco Analyser), farinogram and alveogram to analyze cake flour and mixed powder containing 10, 20, and 30% rice flour for the water activity, texture, and, color changes after different storage periods. We found that rice flour inhibited starch aging, and that gluten free rice flour made the cakes more delicate. However, steamed cakes containing rice flour were harder than wheat cakes during storage. Because the cake was steamed, it had more moisture and was softer than cakes baked in an oven. The steamed cake prepared with rice flour became brighter than the control. The results of the consumer acceptance test and sensory characteristics showed that the steamed cake containing 20% rice flour obtained the highest score, indicating that this is the most appropriate level for making steamed cakes.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of maesil extract on medium and cake flour using the falling number and RVA tests, as well as farinography, and alveography. The maesil extract were added on the medium and cake flour bases, 3% and 5% each. The falling numbers of the medium and cake flour with maesil extract were increased due to alteration of the protein in the flour. Analysis of the RVA characteristics showed that the addition of maesil extract did not have a significant effect on the initial pasting temperature. Peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and the breakdown and setback values of the medium flour were not consistent, but those of the cake flour decreased. Farinography demonstrated that the addition of maesil extract decreased water absorption and improved the stability of the medium and cake flour. The characteristics of the alveogram showed that the addition of maesil extract increased the extensibility and swelling index. Based on the experimental data, the processing rheology may be good when using maesil extract to make yellow layer cake.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of rheological and sensory characteristics of the low-calorie layer cake. It was made with different levels of hydrolyzed oat flour based on the weight of shortening. The specific gravity of cake batter by increasing of hydrolyzed oat flour was decreased. The viscosity, however, was increased. The microstructures of cake crumb observed by the scanning electron microscope showed the decreased number/size of air cells, and the fat particles were also decreased. The texture profile analysis showed statistically significant differences according to the different levels of hydrolyzed oat flour based on the weight of shortening. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness gradually declined by the increasing hydrolyzed oat flour level while springiness, cohesiveness, and resilience increased. Although taste, texture, and flavor decreased by the addition of hydrolyzed oat flour, it was increased in the appearance, color, and overall preference of the layer cake. Taken together, our results suggest that a 45% addition of hydrolyzed oat flour could be the best replacer for the low-calorie layer cake.

Effects of normal (non-waxy) and waxy millet flours on properties of sponge cake were examined. Total dietary fiber contents of normal and waxy millets were 5.04 and 5.12%, respectively, while that of soft wheat flour was 2.23%. Alkaline water retention capacity value generally increased with addition of normal and waxy millet flours, whereas peak, minimum, and final viscosities decreased. Mixing time and mixing height decreased with addition of millet flour. Lightness of cake crust increased with addition of normal millet flour, whereas it decreased with addition of waxy millet flour, tightness of cake crumb decreased as the amount of normal and waxy millet flours increased. Increasing proportions of normal and waxy millet flours resulted in significantly decreased loaf volume. Replacement of 10% wheat flour by both normal and waxy millet flours did not significantly affect characteristics of sponge cake, but addition of more than 20% millet flour resulted in significant differences in quality characteristics.

This study was conducted to investigate the difference in the characteristics of pound cakes baked from one imported and three Korean wheat flours through sensory evaluation and physical measurement. From the result of sensory evaluation, it was shown that cakes baked from Korean wheat flour were not preferred than cake baked from imported wheat flour in texture, taste and overall preference. L, a, b value of crumb color of pound cake baked from imported wheat flour was 81.09, -0.49, 28.17. It means that crumb color of pound cake baked from imported wheat flour was brighter yellow than that of cakes baked from Korean wheat flour. The volume of pound cakes baked from Korean wheat flour(D, B) was larger than that of cake baked from imported wheat flour. It was 833 and 800 cc. There was no significant difference in hardness within cake samples.
