Abstract
Artichoke bracts appear as waste during artichoke processing in food industry. In this study, it was aimed to use the artichoke bracts as fat and wheat flour replacer in cake, to determine the optimum usage ratio for producing a healthier cake with reduced fat, wheat flour content and sensory preference. The physical, chemical, and sensory properties of the cakes produced using artichoke bracts were determined. The fat replacement and wheat flour replacement ratio of artichoke bracts in the cake formulation as independent variables were arranged through Face Centred Central Composite Design. Optimization was implemented under conditions providing high cake volume, soft cake texture, high total phenolic content, high antioxidant activity, and sensory properties by the consumer. As a result of the optimization, it was determined that the artichoke bracts could be used as 31.63% fat replacer and 16.43% wheat flour replacer for reduced fat and wheat flour cake production.
