The leavening process of baked goods is essential to develop their quality properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different types of baking powder on quality properties of muffins. The physicochemical properties of both the batter and the final product were evaluated, in addition to its influence on the farinological properties of flour and the textural and sensory properties of the product in storage. The PH16 formulation was found to be the most suitable; being the highest (47.66 ± 0.35 mm), with lower moisture content (24.31 ± 0.18%), lower hardness (12.34 ± 0.34 N), and lower crumb firmness (1.84 ± 0.01). The behavior of the PH16 sample in storage and at sensory level showed no significant differences with the chosen control sample.

Keywords : leavening powder; sodium bicarbonate; texture; cake.
