Innovative Technology of Chocolate Covered Multi Layered Chips

Abstract

Topicality. The assortment of chips in the world market and technologies of their production are analyzed in this article. The main tendency of chips market is the growing demand for products from local natural raw materials, which retain all the nutrients to the highest degree. Therefore, it is important to elaborate a technology for chips production, which is supposed to combine traditional methods of processing raw materials with some new technological solutions. As a result, an innovative product with various combinations of raw materials, as well as a high caloric content, can be obtained by this new technology. Aim and methods. The aim of the study is to substantiate and develop the technology of chocolate covered multi layered chips. Organoleptic research methods, the method of expert evaluations and the calculation method for determining quality and quantity indicators of chips are used to achieve the set purpose. Results. The organoleptic properties of chocolate covered multi layered chips are studied. It is obtained that chips have different shapes and sizes. The color of the chips surface depends on the composition of glaze and raw materials. Chips have a faint smell of chocolate and a sweet or sweet-sour taste. The inner layers of chips do not have a crispy and brittle consistency. In this research, some means of chips value quality indicators are calculated, their nutritional and energetical value is determined. Conclusions and discussion. It is obvious that adding berry powder to chocolate glaze improves taste properties of chips, the color of their surface and look in total. Chocolate covering of chips makes it possible to high their caloric content. The compositions of chips containing apple and berry powder have the highest values of quality, and the compositions of chips containing carrot and zucchini have the lowest ones. The scientific novelty of obtained results lies in the production technology elaboration of chocolate covered multi layered chips. The practical significance of the study results can be used in the expansion of chips assortment.
