12653ABSTRACTConsumers are increasingly demanding products with natural ingredients andfunctional properties. The replacement of conventional sugars with recently avail-able sugars or sweeteners could result in the perception of candies as healthierproducts. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the influence ofisomaltulose, oligofructose and stevia extracts on the physicochemical, mechani-cal, optical and antioxidant properties as well as the shelf life of marshmallows. Asensory test was carried out in order to evaluate the influence of these ingredientson the acceptance of this product. The instrumental and sensorial textural resultsindicate that the sucrose and glucose syrup in commercial marshmallows could bereplaced by a mixture of isomaltulose, oligofructose and stevia. Adults found thenew and the traditional marshmallows to be very similar. However, children onlyfound similarities in terms of the texture. These new marshmallows, besidesbeing more microbiologically stable, have added value due to their antioxidantproperties.PRACTICAL
