aneonnyuncho (opuntia humefitsa) has multiple fanctional properties and is a good source of dietary investigate the quality characteristics of sponge cakes made with fibre. The purpose of this study was to cheonnyuncho powder The moisture. ash, and dietary fibre levels in the sponge cakes increased linearty cheonnyuncho powder/100 g of wheat flour, and the carbolydrate and with the addition of 0-9 g of calorie contents of the samples decreased. The specific gravity and yield of dough increased with the addition of cheonnyuncho powder. For the crumb colour values, Land a decreased with the addition of In the texture analysis, hardness and whereas the b and AE values increased. were reduced, but cohesiveness and springiness were increased try the addition of theon- nyunche powder. When the sensory characteristics were evaluated the addition of powder 100 g of wheat four showed the best sensory properties the addition of g cheonnyuncho powder too g of wheat nour improved the physical quality and taste cake. c 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
