Abstract

Practicability of full substitution of eggs in the production of yellow cake was evaluated. Different concentrations of xanthan gum were used (0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5%). The results showed that substituting eggs with 0.5% xanthan gum inside a cake produced a harder cake and lower its volume, water activity, and moisture content compared to control (1599.66 and 1945.69 g, 523.33 and 425.00cm3, 0.91 and 0.89, 28.87 and 26.97%, respectively). The sensory evaluation result showed that the addition of 0.5% xanthan gum to an eggless cake received the highest acceptability among other eggless cakes. In conclusion, the addition of 0.5% xanthan gum produced the most promising egg substitute in cakes.
