Author(s) : RODRIGUEZ M. V., MEDINA L. M., JORDANO R.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The effect of three different modified atmospheres on the shelf life of sponge cake was studied. Three packaging atmospheres were tested: 50% CO2; 50% N2, 100% CO2 and standard air as control. The samples were examined daily for visible mould growth and analysed periodically throughout storage (15-20 °C and 51-63% RH). The atmosphere CO2:N2 (50:50) extended the shelf life of the sponge cakes by 2-3 days with respect to packaging in standard air.
