Description
Summary:The possibility of the use of mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) flour, which application is almost unknown in our confectionary, was presented in this article. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of mung bean flour on the quality of sucrose-sweetened sponge cake through its physical and sensory characteristics. Two types of sponge cakes made by a partial and full substitution of wheat flour with mung bean flour were proposed. The methods of descriptive sensory analysis were used for a comparative analysis of the new cakes and the control sucrose-sweetened sponge cake. The newly obtained baker’s goods were characterized with good quality characteristics in comparison with those of the cake without mung bean flour (the control cake-sample). Wheat flour could be replaced up to 100 % with mung bean flour for the preparation of sponge cakes without resulting in an unacceptable product in terms of its physical and sensory characteristics. Increasing mung bean flour up to 50 % had most significant effect on textural sensory characteristics. On the grounds of the received results, it can be expected a potential consumer interest in bakery sweet products enriched with vegetable functional ingredients.
