Abstract

In this article, the experience of using gluten-free flour for special-purpose confectionery products for restaurants was analyzed. Fortified cupcakes have high customer appeal and a higher nutritional value. A mix of rice and almond flour as an alternative to wheat flour, and cottage cheese with a fat content of 5% as source of protein were selected. The nutrition value, energy content, and biological value of the chosen raw materials (rice flour, almond flour and cottage cheese) were determined. A recipe for low-fat (less than 2,3 times) cupcakes with high protein content (more than 1,7 times) was created. The possibility of replacing wheat flour with other types of flour, such as rice flour and almond flour, in the ratio 2:1 was confirmed. The possibility of replacing a portion of the butter with cottage cheese in a 1:2:3 ratio was established. In the process of analyzing organoleptic properties, profile-graphics compositions for various properties like color, smell, shape, taste, and texture were made. The result shows that the new cupcakes have high-quality properties; the main difference is 24% due to the fact that the products have different taste, structure, and amount of water when compared to the control sample. Indicators for new cupcakes, such as moisture content (increasing to 5%) were determined. New cupcakes have a reduced fat content (43%)compared to the control sample. As a result of the experiments, the recipe for new fortified cupcakes for restaurants with high customer properties, nutrition, biological value, and low energy value was researched and justified. The new fortified cupcakes have good nutrition value with a high level of essential amino acids, which proves that the balance of essential amino acids is about the physiologically necessary norm.
