Effect of the addition of peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) peel flour on the color and sensory properties of cakes

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the color and sensorial characteristics of a cake made with different amounts of flour made with peach palm peel flour. The flour was added at different concentrations, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10% (w/w), including a control (tartrazine). Physiochemical analyses were carried out on the cakes, including total carotenoids, CIE-L*a*b* color coordinates, and sensorial attributes. The results demonstrated that the peach palm peel flour substitution increased the total carotenoid content of the cakes. The color test showed that high levels of peach palm peel flour resulted in a decrease in the values of lightness (L*) and hue angle (h°), while the values of browning index (BI) and color change (ΔE*) increased significantly. The qualification of the sensorial evaluation indicated that the quality attributes were acceptable in the cakes made with wheat flour and 7.5% peach palm peel flour. Therefore, it was concluded that flour obtained from peach palm peel is a by-product that can be used as a natural food dye alternative in bread products.

1 Introduction

Color is one of the more important quality attributes for the commercialization of food. Consistent with this importance, the industry uses coloring additives, artificial or natural, in order to intensify, compensate or add coloring to manufactured products for an attractive and agreeable look, making them similar in appearance to the natural product (Pasias et al., 2015Pasias, I. N., Asimakopoulos, A. G., & Thomaidis, N. S. (2015). Food colours for bakery products, snack foods, dry soup mixes, and seasonings.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.dyepig.2014....
).

Traditionally, artificial food dyes, such as erythrosine, ponceau and tartrazine, are used in the processed food industry despite the health risks (Santos et al., 2014Santos, L. F., Dias, V. M., Pilla, V., Andrade, A. A., Alves, L. P., Munin, E., Monteiro, V. S., & Zilio, S. C. (2014). Spectroscopic and photothermal characterization of annatto: Applications in functional foods.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.dyepig.2014....
). Studies have reported that the consumption of artificial food dyes develops allergies and increases the risk of cancer (McCann et al., 2007McCann, D., Barrett, A., Cooper, A., Crumpler, D., Dalen, L., Grimshaw, K., Kitchin, E., Lok, K., Porteous, L., Prince, E., Sonuga-Barke, E., Warner, J.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.fct.2010.07....
). As a result, in recent years, the demand for natural food dyes has increased. For example, in 2007, the sale of natural food dyes reached 465 million dollars and it is expected that sales in 2017 will reach 1.3 billion dollars (Natural Products Insider, 2015Natural Products Insider. (2015). The natural color palette. Retrieved from http://www.foodproductdesign.com/digital-issues/2015/05/natural-colors.aspx
http://www.foodproductdesign.com/digital...
). In recent years, natural food dyes, such as carotenoids, β-carotene (E160aii), bixin (E160b), paprika extract (E160c), lycopene (E160d) and β-Apo-8´carotenal (E160e), have been broadly used in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries because, in addition to their coloring effect, they can impart health benefits in some cases through antioxidants and provitamin A and, in general terms, are seen as less harmful than their artificial counterparts (Santos et al., 2014Santos, L. F., Dias, V. M., Pilla, V., Andrade, A. A., Alves, L. P., Munin, E., Monteiro, V. S., & Zilio, S. C. (2014).

http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/096374803/0000...
reported that the peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) is one of the more complete tropical foods due to its nutritional value because it has high contents of protein, essential amino acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Notably, this fruit has high contents of β-carotene, vitamin A, calcium, phosphorus and iron (Rojas-Garbanzo et al., 2011Rojas-Garbanzo, C., Pérez, A. M., Bustos-Carmona, J., & Vaillant, F. (2011).

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2011...
). Peach palm fruits are traditionally cooked or turned into flour, preserves, marmalade, or fermented beverages (Graefe et al., 2013Graefe, S., Dufour, D., Van Zonneveld, M., Rodriguez, F., & Gonzalez, A. (2013). Peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) in tropical Latin America: implications for biodiversity conservation, natural resource management and human nutrition.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10531-012-040...
). When processed, 18% of the fruit becomes residue, mainly the peel and seeds, which are currently not valued and represent an environmental problem. Babbar et al. (2015)Babbar, N., Oberoi, H. S., & Sandhu, S. K. (2015). Therapeutic and nutraceutical potential of bioactive compounds extracted from fruit residue. Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 55(3), 319-337.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10408398.2011....
reported that an effective option for managing fruit residue is the recovery of phytochemicals/bioactive compounds from the fruit residue, which can be used in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

Various studies have reported on the use of residues from the epicarp and mesocarp of fruits and vegetative parts in baked products. Netto-Rangel et al. (2011)Netto-Rangel, C., Silva, E. M.

2 Materials and methods

2.1 Peach palm peel flour (PPPF) preparation

Cooked peach palm fruit (Bactris gasipaes) were acquired in the municipal market in Palmira (Colombia), and then the epicarp (peels) was removed and cut. Peels was oven-dried at 60 °C until the moisture level was constant (11% w/w). Dried peel was ground to a powdered form using an electrical grinder and passed through a 0.25 mm sieve, and refrigerated until its later use.

2.2 Formulation of cakes with peach palm peel flour

The standard cake or control was made according to the AACC, “Approved Methods of the American Association of Cereal Chemists”, Method 10-90, (American Association of Cereal Chemists, 1995American Association of Cereal Chemists. (1995). Approved methods of the American Association of Cereal Chemists. St. Paul: AACC International. Retrieved from http://methods.aaccnet.org/about.aspx
http://methods.aaccnet.org/about.aspx...
). The formulation for the preparation of cake was used the method of (Offia-Olua & Ekwunife, 2015Offia-Olua, B. I., & Ekwunife, O. A. (2015). Production and evaluation of the physico-chemical and sensory qualities of mixed fruit leather and cakes produced from apple (), banana (Musa pumilaMusa sapientumAnanas comosus), pineapple (. )Nigerian Food Journal, 33(1), 22-28. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nifoj.2015.04.004.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nifoj.2015.0...
) with some modifications: 75 g of American wheat flour manufactured by Harinera del Valle S.A, Colombia were mixed with 1.5 g of baking powder (Fleischmann Colombia), 72 g of margarine (Masaplus Multipremium Fleischmann Colombia), 75 g of eggs (Poultry Industry Golden Eggs Colombia), 75 g of sugar (Incauca S.A.S, Colombia), 10 g of whole milk (Parmalat Colombia Ltda), and 0.03 g of tartrazine E102 brand Goldine Yellow 5 (Fleischmann Colombia). The other samples were obtained by replacing the conventional wheat flour with 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% peach palm peel flour and not adding any artificial food dyes. All of the dry ingredients were placed in a mixing bowl. The sugar and margarine were mixed for 7 min, until a stable cream was obtained. Afterwards, the other ingredients were mixed with a paddle whisk on the second speed setting for 7 min. The greased rectangular pans were filled with 300 g of the mixture. The prepared mixtures were baked at 215 ± 2 °C (Oven bakery, Essen) for 25 min with 90% HR and an internal temperature of 94 ± 2 °C.

2.3 Physicochemical analysis

The pH measurement and dry matter was performed according to Association of Official Analytical Chemists (1995)Association of Official Analytical Chemists. (1995).

). A Minolta CR-400 (Tokyo, Japan) color colorimeter was used for this study. The instrument was standardized each time with a black and a white (Y = 89.5; x = 0.3176; y = 0.3347) tile using illuminant D65, and a 2° observer. The parameters L*, a* y b* were determined by reflectance CIE-L*a*b* color coordinates. In addition, the Chroma (C*), hue angle (h°), browning index (BI), color index (IC*) and total color change (ΔE*), were calculated by the Equations 1-6:

C * = ( a * 2 + b * 2 ) 1 / 2 (1)
h ° = tan 1 ( b * / a * ) (2)
B I = 100 × ( X 0.31 / 0.17 ) (3)
X = ( a * + 1.75 L * ) / ( 5.645 L * + a * 3.012 b * ) (4)
I C * = ( a * × 1000 ) / ( L * × b * ) (5)
Δ E * = ( Δ a * 2 + Δ b * 2 + Δ L * 2 ) 1 / 2 (6)

The rheological characteristics for both wheat flour and peach palm peel flour were measured on a farinograph (Brabender, Druisburg, Germany), following the protocol of the AACC “Approved Methods of the American Association of Cereal Chemists (1995)American Association of Cereal Chemists. (1995). Approved methods of the American Association of Cereal Chemists. St. Paul: AACC International. Retrieved from http://methods.aaccnet.org/about.aspx
http://methods.aaccnet.org/about.aspx...
, Method 54-21. From the farinograph curve obtained for each flour characteristics such as water absorption, development time of the dough, dough stability, tolerance index and breakup time of the dough-water they were determined.

2.4 Sensory evaluation

The sensory characteristics of cakes incorporated with PPPF were conducted to determine the acceptability of the product according to method described by Ocen & Xu (2013)Ocen, D., & Xu, X. (2013). Effect of citrus orange (. Citrus sinensis) by-product dietary fiber preparations on the quality characteristics of frozen dough breadAmerican Journal of Food Technology, 8(1), 43-53. http://dx.doi.org/10.3923/ajft.2013.43.53.
http://dx.doi.org/10.3923/ajft.2013.43.5...
with a slight modification. An untrained panel of 80 members (males and females) selected from University community with aged between 18 and 50 years performed the sensory evaluation of cakes. The panelists were guided on how to carry out the tests and the cakes were prepared using Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). People of University community with allergic history to tartrazine E102 or intolerance to gluten (coeliacs) were excluded from the sensory evaluation. The ethical issues of the sensory analysis were developed as decribed in Institute of Food Science and Technology (2015)Institute of Food Science and Technology. (2015).

).

Cakes were evaluated on the basis of acceptance of their texture, color, taste, odor, and overall acceptability on a nine-point hedonic scale. The values ranged from “like extremely” to “dislike extremely” corresponding to the highest and lowest scores of “9”and “1”, respectively. Immediately before sensory testing, the cakes were sliced into 30 mm thick slice.

2.5 Statistical analyses

The experimental design was a randomized blocks, the treatments were control, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% PPPF, with five replicates per treatment. Data was analyzed with a one-way ANOVA and treatments means were compared using Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05). All statistical calculations were performed using SPSS 18 for Windows.

reported L* 69 ± 3 and C* 73 ± 5 values in peach palm mesocarp flour that exceeded those obtained in the present study, unlike the h° 71 ± 1 value, which agreed with our results (Table 1).

Physicochemical properties of the peach palm peel flour1 1 Mean values ± SD (n = 5); .

The rheological characteristics of the peach palm peel flour (PPPF) and the wheat four (WF) are listed in (Figures 1 and 2), respectively. The results indicated that the wheat flour was a strong type because it presented a good correlation between the development time and the dough rupture time, unlike the PPPF, which was a weak flour as indicated by the high values obtained for the dough stability and rupture time. This indicated that the partial substitution of WF with low concentrations of PPPF allows for the development of dough that is suitable for mixing with doughs used in baking. However, a substitution of WF with high concentrations of PPPF will generate an excessively porous and honeycombed crumb. The results in the graphs indicated that, for the PPPF, the water absorption was 60%, the dough development time was 19.8 min, the dough stability was 15.7 min, the tolerance index was (10 FU) and the rupture time of the flour-water dough was 19.9 min. Meanwhile, for the WF, the water absorption was 65.5%, the dough development time was 2.3 min, the dough stability was 6.2 min, the tolerance index was 38 FU and the rupture time of the flour-water dough was 5.4 min.

The values obtained for the water absorption of the flours were similar to those reported by Osorio & Galvis (2009)Osorio, S. H., & Galvis, J. A. (2009). Influencia de la variedad de yuca y nivel de sustitución de harinas compuestas sobre el comportamiento reológico en panificación. Ingeniería e Investigación, 29, 39-46. who reported a water absorption value of 63.8% in wheat flour and 64.4% in flour with 5% substitution with yuca flour, Visentín et al. (2009)Visentín, A.

PMid:19886519. reported values of 59.6% for water absorption in wheat flour and 60% for wheat flour with 6% substitution with soy flour, De la Horra et al. (2012)De la Horra, A. E., Seghezzo, M. L., Molfese, E., Ribotta, P. D., & León, A. E. (2012). Indicadores de calidad de las harinas de trigo: índice de calidad industrial y su relación con ensayos predictivos. Agriscientia, 29(2), 81-89. studied the rheological characteristics of different types of wheat flour and found 57.2% water absorption for a type 1 wheat flour along with a development time of 93 min and a stability of 12.2 min and, in a type 2 wheat flour, a 63.6% water absorption, a development time of 22.3 min and a stability of 14.7 min, meaning the dough development time of the peach palm peel flour was lower than that of the type 2 wheat flour. Sánchez et al. (1998)Sánchez, D. H., Osella, C. A., & Torre, M. A. (1998). Mejoramiento de la calidad nutricional de pan tipo francés. Archivos Latinoamericanos de Nutricion, 48(4), 349-353. PMid:10347701. reported that flours with a water absorption percentage close to 60 require minimum quantities of water or milk additions to form the dough, Paes et al. (2010)Paes, J. L., Faroni, L.

Ciencias Biológicas, 41, 1-11. reported tolerance index values between 37 and 39 FU and flour-water dough rupture time of 4.8 min, which agree with the values obtained in the present study for the wheat flour. No previous studies were found for the rheological characteristics of peach palm peel flour. In similar studies Oliveira et al. (2006)Oliveira, M. K., Martinez‐Flores, H. E., De Andrade, J. S., Garnica‐Romo, M. G., & Chang, Y. K. (2006). Use of pejibaye flour (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) in the production of food pastas. International Journal of Food Science & Technology, 41(8), 933-937. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2621.2005.01145.x.

studied the effect of adding 15% peach palm mesocarp flour to a wheat flour for making pasta, observing an increase in the absorption of water and in the dough development time, but a reduction in the stability and the tolerance index. Azizi et al. (2012)Azizi, M. H., Andrade, J. S., Lemos, J. S., Souza, S. J., De Souza, R. S., & Hadian, Z. (2012). Quality of wheat bread incorporated with different levels of peach palm flour (. Bactris gasipaes Kunth)Journal of Tropical Agriculture and Food Science, 40(1), 13-22. studied the addition of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25% (w/w) peach palm mesocarp flour to wheat flour for making bread. For the wheat flour, they obtained 63% water absorption, a development time of 2.5 min and a stability time of 2.5 min. They reported that the addition of the peach palm mesocarp flour to the wheat flour resulted in an increase in the water absorption, an increase in the tolerance index, and a decrease in the dough stability time. The increases in the ability to absorb water seen in the wheat fortified with mesocarp flour were attributed to the fiber content and the carbohydrates found in peach palm fruits. The ability of the wheat to absorb water has a significant correlation with the development time due to the fact that the tolerance index increases with the addition of peach palm fruit flour.

3.2 Physicochemical analysis of cakes

(Table 2) lists the physicochemical properties of the formulations evaluated in this study (2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% PPPF), including the control (tartrazine). Statistically, there were significant differences (p < 0.001) in the three evaluated response variables (Table 2).

Table 2
Physicochemical properties of the cakes with different contents of peach palm peel flour.

The pH presented a slight decrease as the percentage of added PPPF increased, while the dry mass and the total carotenoid content significantly increased as compared to the control (Table 2). Azizi et al. (2012)Azizi, M. H., Andrade, J. S., Lemos, J. S., Souza, S. J., De Souza, R. S., & Hadian, Z. (2012). Quality of wheat bread incorporated with different levels of peach palm flour (. Bactris gasipaes Kunth)Journal of Tropical Agriculture and Food Science, 40(1), 13-22. also found an increase in the concentration of total carotenoids as the peach palm mesocarp flour substitution percentage increased in wheat flour for making bread. On the other hand, the comparison of the total carotenoid concentration in the PPPF and the cakes reflected a significant reduction in the concentration of carotenoid pigments (Tables 1 and 2). This loss could be associated with the mixing, whisking, and cooking (baking) processes of the cakes. Similarly Hidalgo et al. (2010)Hidalgo, A., Brandolini, A., & Pompei, C. (2010). Carotenoids evolution during pasta, bread and water biscuit preparation from wheat flours. Food Chemistry, 121(3), 746-751. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2010.01.034.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.201...
reported reductions in the carotenoid content when making bread and cookies.

(Table 3) shows the superficial color attributes evaluated in the crust and in the crumb for the cakes of this study. In all cases, in both the crust and the crumb, adding the flour significantly affected (p < 0.001) the color variables of the cakes: the L*, b*, C*, h°, and BI color parameters were significantly reduced and, on the other hand, the a*, IC* and ΔE* color parameters increased as the percentage of peach palm peel flour increased (Table 3). The samples with tartrazine presented the statistically highest values of L*, b*, C*, h°, and BI, while the cakes with this artificial food dye had the lowest values for a* and IC* (Table 3).

Table 3
Crust and crumb color of the cakes with different contents of peach palm peel flour.

The increase in the color intensity as the percentage of added PPPF increased in the cakes was clearly the result of the increase in the dry material and the carotenoid concentration contributed by the PPPF (Figure 3).

Another factor that influenced these color changes in both the crust and crumb of the cakes was the non-enzymatic browning reactions (Maillard reaction and caramelization), which are influenced by the distribution of water and the reaction between reducing sugars and amino acids (Siddiq et al., 2009Siddiq, M., Nasir, M., Ravi, R., Butt, M. S., Dolan, K. D., & Harte, J. B. (2009). Effect of defatted maize germ flour addition on the physical and sensory quality of wheat bread. LWT - Food Science and Technology (Campinas.), 42, 464-470. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.lwt.2008.09.005.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.lwt.2008.09....
).

3.3 Sensory analysis of cakes

The effect of incorporating PPPF on the sensorial properties and the general acceptability of each of the formulations can be seen in (Table 4). It was determined with the sensorial analysis that the increase in the percentage of PPPF statistically affected the texture, color, taste, odor, and general acceptance (Table 4).

Table 4
Sensorial evaluation of the cakes with different contents of peach palm peel flour

The cakes with 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5% substitution with peach palm peel flour presented higher scores for the evaluated sensorial attributes; on the other hand, the formulations with tartrazine and 10% PPPF had the lower scores for the evaluated sensorial parameters (Table 4). The highest quantification in terms of general acceptance was obtained with the 7.5% PPPF formulation (Figure 3).

carried out a sensorial analysis of cookies made with the addition of potato flour and found that 30% substitution was the maximum amount in order to obtain a product with acceptable quality.

4 Conclusions

Peach palm peel flour (PPPF) can be considered a natural food dye alternative for baked products in order to replace the artificial food dye tartrazine. The addition of PPPF increased the total carotenoid concentration in all of the analyzed cake formulations. The sensorial evaluations demonstrated that the cakes incorporated with PPPF, up to 7.5%, had good acceptance. Therefore, peels generated after the consumption of cooked peach palm fruits can be transformed, by drying and milling them into flour, for use as a natural food dye option in baked products, thereby satisfying the preference of consumers for natural products over artificial products.
