Baking goods are an essential part of the diet worldwide and are consumed daily, so they represent ideal foods for vehicle health- and unhealth-promoting substances. This work aimed to study the influence of sugars and baking conditions of cookies on the final levels of the main reported hazardous chemical compounds such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), 3-deoxyglucosone (3-DG), glyoxal (GO) and methylglyoxal (MGO). The replacement of sucrose with fructose or glucose in the cookies recipe deeply modifies the levels of α-dicarbonyl compounds (DCs), particularly 3-DG, independently of the baking temperature used. A longer baking time, even a few minutes, can drastically modify the HMF level in cookies and the use of fructose or glucose in the recipe seems to ensure the optimal conditions for generating this compound. The use of sucrose is required to keep levels of the hazardous compounds below a few mg/kg. Additionally, the ability to retain water, the titratable acidity and/or the pH of the final products were influenced by the used sugars with effects on the final levels of DCs and HMF. The highest Ea values determined for DCs and HMF formation in the cookies with sucrose suggest that this system requires very high temperatures to increase meaningful levels of these molecules, limiting their accumulation.
Summary Fat replacement is a particular challenge for food technologists as it determines changes in the rheological properties, which could be translated into a reduction of the consumer's acceptability. In this context, a sensomic approach has been applied to cookies obtained by using different fats and baking conditions for orienting product development towards end‐consumers’ expectations. The approach included instrumental analyses, gas‐chromatography‐mass‐spectrometry, high‐performance‐liquid‐chromatography, qualitative‐descriptive‐analysis, consumer's acceptability test and Multivariate data analysis. Preference map was applied by combining the analytical with the hedonic sensory data. Cookies made of different fats were characterised by a typical sensory profile which was influenced by the baking conditions; the amount of the aroma volatile and dicarbonyl compounds also distinguished the different cookies samples. The approach allowed to verify the sensory interactions among the different studied chemical compounds and how these influence sensory properties and the main sensory features on which consumers focus their preferences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
