Abstract

Now a day, Membrane of gac fruit seed was pervasively used in pharmacy and cosmetic industrial. In process, about 90% of by product from gac fruit was produce including water meat and peel. They plenty of antioxidant compound and good source of fiber that suitable for creating antioxidant dietary fiber. This research investigated on quality and application in bakery of dietary fiber from gac fruit peel (DFG). The chemical composition of DFG consist of moisture, protein, fat, ash, fiber and carbohydrate were 5.10, 1.42, 0.02, 6.16, 34.43 and 52.87% respectively. DFG is dark yellow and absorption ability about 4.45 g.liquid/g.solid for water while 2.26 g.liquid/g.solid for oil. Furthermore, flour replacing with DFG and water replacing with water from membrane of gac fruit seed (WMG) were applied in sponge cake. The result show, 10% of flour replacing with DFG and 25% water replacing with WMG had highest liking score for all attribute form sensory evaluation. The chemical composition of developed cake consist of moisture, protein, fat, ash, fiber and carbohydrate were 33.54, 10.60, 0.24, 0.07, 12.93 and 40.62% respectively.
