Sugar Free
Biscuits
|
| Introduction: |
Ordinary "gluco"
type biscuits contain about 450 calories and contain
sugar up to 25%. The Sugar-free biscuits do not
contain any added sugar. Replacement of sucrose
became an area of importance in the late 1970s as
a number of food industry professionals implicated
sucrose in tooth decay, development of obesity,
coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, the
development of diabetes etc. CFTRI developed and
standardised a formulation for sugar free biscuit
which can be used by diabets. |
| Process: |
Sugar-free biscuits are made
from soft dough based on the creaming method and
processed in rotary moulder. The biscuits are baked
in a continuous tunnel type oven as followed for
sweet 'gluco" type biscuits.
CFTRI has developed a special formula containing
safe sweetness, which can give crisp texture and
sweet taste to the final product. |
