The Application of Pureed Butter Beans and a Combination of Inulin and Rebaudioside A for the Replacement of Fat and Sucrose in Sponge Cake: Sensory and Physicochemical Analysis

Aislinn M. Richardson et al.

Summary: The main objective of the study was to determine minimum levels of fat and sucrose required for sensory acceptance of sponge cake while enhancing its nutritional quality. Results showed that replacing sucrose had significant impacts on certain sensory properties of sponge cake, whereas fat replacement had minimal effects on these properties. Simultaneous reduction in fat and sucrose content led to sponge cakes with increased dietary fiber.

A review of the composition and toxicology of fructans, and their applications in foods and health

Deepak Kumar Verma et al.

Summary: Fructans are non-structural polymers of D-fructose obtained abundantly from plants and microbial sources, divided into three groups based on their linkages: inulin, levans, and graminan. They are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries, increasing viscosity in food products like ice cream and fermented milk, serving as prebiotics, and substitutes for fat and sugar in the food industry. Additionally, fructans are effective for managing chronic diseases like high blood pressure, diabetes, and colon cancer. This review covers fructans biosynthesis, utilization in industries, health impacts as prebiotics, and safety aspects.

Fructans (agavins) from Agave angustifolia and Agave potatorum as fat replacement in yogurt: Effects on physicochemical, rheological, and sensory properties

Patricia A. Santiago-Garcia et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the potential of agavins as fat replacers in dairy products, showing improvements in physicochemical properties and sensory attributes without impacting color, smell, and taste. The addition of agavins proved to be valuable in the production of low-fat dairy products.

The Functionality of Inulin as a Sugar Replacer in Cakes and Biscuits; Highlighting the Influence of Differences in Degree of Polymerisation on the Properties of Cake Batter and Product

Kleopatra Tsatsaragkou et al.

Summary: The success of inulin in providing functional properties for sugar reduction in baked products depends on the degree of polymerisation of the inulin and rheological parameters in the specific bakery matrix. The lower degree of polymerisation inulin resulted in similar cake properties to standard sugar batter, while the higher degree of polymerisation inulin led to differences in texture and mouthfeel.

Obesity-induced taste dysfunction, and its implications for dietary intake

Fiona Harnischfeger et al.

Summary: The incidence of obesity is increasing, but effective intervention strategies are lacking; Overconsumption of high-fat, high-sugar foods contributes to obesity, which are often palatable; Obesity may affect the taste system, and changes in taste could potentially be targeted for obesity treatment.

The role of agave fructans in health and food applications: A review

Hugo Espinosa-Andrews et al.

Summary: Agave fructans are natural reserve carbohydrates in agave plants and have been used as functional ingredients in food products due to their technological properties and health benefits. They promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, regulate serum glucose, lessen health problems associated with obesity, favor calcium absorption, and have chemoprotective, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects. Agave fructans also improve flavor, color, texture, sweetness, and sensory attributes in various food applications.
