Application of Rheology in the Cookie and Cracker Industry

  • Chapter
Dough Rheology and Baked Product Texture

Abstract

Cookie and cracker manufacturing lends itself to extensive mechanization, and it is now entering on an era of increasing automation. Although mechanization has made it possible to reduce labor costs and to eliminate many tedious and repetitive jobs, it has also created a great demand for better understanding of factors that affect the cookie/cracker manufacturing process (Manley, 1983).
