Effect of Edible Coating with Cinnamon Oil on the Quality of Cake
Abstract: The present study aimed to studying the effect of the edible coating consisting of methylcellulose, starch and glycerol as a carrier of cinnamon oil on rheological properties, shelf life, nutritional value and lipid oxidation of cake at room temperature and at refrigerator during storage. The edible coating solution was added to cake during preparation the formula of cake, or as a coating after baking cake. Total count of bacteria, yeasts and molds were determined. Chemical composition, acid value, peroxide value, specific volume, firmness were evaluated during different periods of storage. Rheological properties of dough genitive edible coating solution containing cinnamon oil were measured by farinograph, extensograph, and visco-amylograph, the results showed that the addition of the edible coating solution led to improved rheological properties of dough.Microbiological analysis showed that the use of the edible coating solution genitive cinnamon oil led to a decrease in total count of bacteria and yeasts compared to the control sample. Chemical analyses of cake showed that addition of edible coating solution with cinnamon oil resulted in retain moisture more than the control samples during storage period. These results showed also fat content affected by the addition method of the edible coating solution. Added edible coating solution containing cinnamon oil to cake led to a decrease in acid value and peroxide value during storage. Addition edible coating solution led to the improvement of the specific volume and firmness of cake at zero time and maintains it during the storage period.
