Influence of different baking powders on physico-chemical, sensory and volatile compounds in biscuits and their impact on textural modifications during soaking.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different type of leavening agents (ammonium bicarbonate-A, cream of tartar-B, grape-based leavening agent-C, baking powder-D) on the structural (also after soaking), physico-chemical and other quality characteristics of biscuits made with the same formulation. The major changes observed between samples were related to their textural properties, volatile profile and sensory characteristics. The presence of ammonium bicarbonate in sample A, gave arise to a biscuit with the most homogeneous surface appearance, the less hard structure and highest fracturability and spread, that promoted their greater milk uptake during soaking. The B and C biscuits, made with baking powder having tartaric acid, were characterized by a crisper texture and
