Baking is a decisive stage in the production of bakery products, in general—muffins, in particular—for most of the quality attributes of the final products depend on it. The aim of this work is to model the kinetics of ...

Dough for nontraditional semisweet biscuits—prepared with wheat flour or replacing part of the wheat flour with corn starch, with or without skim milk—was baked at two oven temperatures, 120 or 170°C, until reaching moisture ...

Sponge cake is a sweet bakery product characterized by its aerated and soft crumb and by its thin-coloured crust. The aim of this work is to analyse the influence of baking conditions (natural or forced convection, steam ...

Sponge cake is a sweet bakery product that begins as a fluid batter and, during baking, transforms into a porous solid, presenting an important volume expansion. The aim of this work was, first of all, to study experimentally ...

The present chapter is dedicated to review the heat and mass transfer processes occurring during baking operation. According to previous definitions, the perspective of the analysis is experimental or phenomenological. The ...

This paper presents a study of bread baking, mainly from a technological point of view, i.e. focused on transport phenomena and major quality changes occurring during the process. Such study was carried out by numerical ...
