Abstract Level of inclusion of chicken blood plasma(CBP) in the preparation of cakes was assessed in respectof certain physico-chemical quality traits. The cakes wereprepared with and without added flavour. In each group,seven cakes were prepared from 0 (control) to 60% level ofinclusion of CBP with 10% interval. The cakes at 40%level of incorporation of CBP recorded highest visualgrades for colour and consistency. There was gradual rise incake volume up to 40% level and on further increase inlevel of inclusion of CBP resulted into subsequent fall incake volumes. The pH of cakes did not differ significantlyup to 20% level but it increased beyond 20%. The moisture,total ash and crude protein contents of cakes exhibited anincreasing trend from 0 to 60% level of inclusion of CBP.The ether extract of cakes showed a gradual decrease atincreased level of inclusion of CBP. There was nosignificant effect of flavour for all the parameters studied.Based on the overall results, it may be concluded that CBPcould be successfully used up to 30% level of inclusion forvalue addition in egg products.
