he instrumental forces derived from the cut tests were correlated with the sensory attributes of texture (Table 4). Hardness correlated positively with both cut tests, although the correlation coefficient for the cut test with a “V” shape probe (r = 0.718) was higher than for the cut test with a guillotine (r = 0.687). The adhesiveness of the snacks correlated positively with the cut test using a “V” shape probe (r = 0.763) and chewiness correlated positively with the cut test with a guillotine, although the correlation coefficient was only 0.662. Similarly to hardness, fracturability correlated positively with both cut tests, although the correlation coefficient was higher for the cut test with a guillotine (0.776). Correlation coefficient about of 0.70 indicates fairly strong correlation according to Rayner (1969) cited by Leighton et al. (2010). No significant correlation was found with crispness.
