Title: | Influence of soft cocoa butter equivalents on color and other physical attributes of chocolate | Authors: | Torbica, Aleksndra Pajin, Biljana Omorjan, Radovan |
Issue Date: | 1-Jul-2011 | Journal: | JAOCS, Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society | Abstract: | The physical characteristics and color of chocolate depend on the physical properties and crystallization behavior of the fat phase. In this study, the fat phase of chocolate samples contains cocoa butter from Ghana and soft cocoa butter equivalent (CBE). The laboratory-made chocolate samples were tempered at three different precrystallization temperatures (25, 27 and 29 °C), using three different concentrations of CBE (3, 5 and 7%), calculated as percentage of the chocolate. Physical characteristics of chocolate, namely thermoreographic parameters and solid fat content (SFC), were measured. The color of the chocolate was determined instrumentally, before and after thermo-cycle testing at 32/20 °C. It was found that CBE changed the melting properties of chocolate produced with cocoa butter from Ghana, which is of moderate hardness. It was determined that the optimum precrystallization temperature for chocolate mass with addition of CBE in the given conditions of measurement was 27 °C, the temperature that resulted in the best fat bloom resistance. © 2011 AOCS. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/13067 | ISSN: | 0003021X | DOI: | 10.1007/s11746-011-1763-6 |
