Abstract
Background: Whipped cream is one of the dairy emulsions commonly used as a topping for desserts and cake decorations. Several stabilizers were used to obtain whipped creams of a good quality and with a stable topping. This research study aimed to evaluate the organoleptic, textural, and whipping properties of whipped cream prepared using different stabilizer blends.
Materials and methods: In this study, 0.04% of different stabilizers, including carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), κ-carrageenan (KC), or KC blended (in the ratio of 3:1) with cremodan se 30 (C30), 80 (C80) or 216 (C 216), were used in preparing the whipped cream samples. The whipping properties (whipping time, overrun, and foam stability), viscosity, texture, and organoleptic properties were evaluated.
Results: The obtained findings revealed that using a KC+C80 blend led to the lowest whipping time (76 s) and the highest overrun (120%). Also, pronounced changes obtained by using these stabilizers and the more suitable viscosity were obtained by using a KC+C80 blend. Moreover, using a KC+C80 blend led to higher values of hardness (4.38 N) and cohesiveness (0.53) and lower values of springiness (4.65 mm), chewiness (5.60 mJ), and adhesiveness (8.66 mJ). The data obtained demonstrated that all whipped the cream samples were organoleptically accepted, and the whipped cream prepared with a KC+C80 blend had the highest score of flavor, texture, appearance, and overall acceptability.
