The present study compares the effect of baking process (microwave vs conventional oven) on starch bioavailability in fresh pound cake crumbs and in crumbs from pound cake stored for 8 days. Proximal chemical analysis, resistant starch (RS), retrograded starch (RS3) and starch hydrolysis index (HI) were evaluated. The empirical formula suggested by Granfeldt was used to determine the predicted glycemic index (pGI). Pound cake, one of Mexico's major bread products, was selected for analysis because the quality defects often associated with microwave baking might be reduced with the use of high-fat, high-moisture, batted dough. Differences in product moisture, RS and RS3 were observed in fresh microwave-baked and conventionally baked pound cake. RS3 increased significantly in conventionally baked products stored for 8 days at room temperature, whereas no significantly changes in RS3 were observed in the microwaved product. HI values for freshly baked and stored microwaved product were 59 and 62%, respectively (P > 0.05), whereas the HI value for the conventionally baked product decreased significantly after 8 days of storage. A pound cake with the desired HI and GI characteristics might be obtained by adjusting the microwave baking process.

Article Synopsis
  • Actinomycosis is a rare, chronic infectious disease often misdiagnosed as cancer, leading to surgical biopsies, especially in chest cases.
  • A 62-year-old man exhibited symptoms like fever and difficulty breathing, with imaging revealing a suspicious mass in his chest, which raised concerns for malignancy.
  • Despite initial biopsies not confirming cancer, testing ultimately identified actinomycetes, and the patient improved significantly after antibiotic treatment.

Replacing eggs without influencing pound cakes' texture, appearance, and taste is challenging. Ovalbumin, the major protein in egg white, contributes to the structures of cakes by providing SH Groups that form a firm gel during baking. However, there is a shift in the consumers' behaviour regarding health, well-being, animal welfare standards, and environmental concerns.

Lipidomic insights into the reaction of baking lipases in cakes.

Department of Bioactive and Functional Food Chemistry, Institute of Applied Biosciences, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Karlsruhe, Germany.

Lipases are promising improvers of cake batter and baking properties. Their suitability for use in various cake formulations cannot be predicted yet, because the reactions that lead to macroscopic effects need to be unravelled. Therefore, the lipidome of three different cake recipes with and without lipase treatment was assessed by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry before and after baking.

Lemon juice improved color acceptance of aronia ( pound cake by copigmentation.

Department of Food & Nutrition, College of Natural Science, Seoul Women's University, 621 Hwarang-ro, Nowon-gu, Seoul, 01797 Korea.

Unlabelled: Anthocyanins can be changed into dark purplish color during pound cake preparation due to high temperature and alkaline baking soda, which lowers color acceptance by consumers. To stabilize a red color of anthocyanins in pound cake enriched with aronia () powder, lemon juice was added to contain final concentrations of 0, 1, 2, and 3% (w/w) in the pound cake, which were assigned as control, PL1%, PL2%, and PL3%, respectively. As lemon juice amount increased, redness (a) and sensory color perception as well as overall acceptance were enhanced, whereas hardness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased in texture profile analysis.
