SUMMARY Sponge cake is one of bakery products preferred by consumers. There are so many recipes used to make sponge cake. Even though, the favourite recipes do not always produce a fine cake. Because of that, some food factories have an idea to make a premix for cake products, the premix makes the process easier and results in a similar cake product. Unfortunately, there are some problems in the use of premix. Premix consists of some ingredients, which have different characteristics that have an effect in the final product and shelf life. The objectives of this research are studying the effect of different storage temperatures on quality of sponge cake premix to predict the shelf life in each storage temperatures and finding out correlation between batter density and the physical as well as chemical properties. Sample stored in Climatic Chamber for 3 weeks at under-controlled temperature and relative humidity. Temperatures was set at 19±2oC, 27oC, and 37oC; and at 75% relative humidity. Moisture content and water activity does not have a significant effect on sponge cake batter density (p > 0,05). Sponge cake batter density has significant effect on batter viscosity, batter volume and volume of the sponge cake (p < 0,05). Sponge cake batter density also has a significant effect on the texture properties of sponge cake (p < 0,05). Based on sponge cake batter density, the predicted shelf life of sponge cake premix using arrhenius model were 110 days (at 21oC), 47 days (at 27oC), and 12 days (at 37oC). The longest storage temperature was at 19±2oC.

RINGKASAN Sponge cake adalah salah satu produk bakery yang disukai konsumen. Resep untuk membuat sponge cake mudah ditemukan. Meskipun resep favorit, juga tidak selalu menghasilkan cake seperti yang diinginkan. Beberapa perusahaan makanan memiliki ide untuk membuat premix cake, premix akan membuat proses pembuatan cake lebih mudah dan memiliki hasil yang konsisten. Tetapi ada masalah dalam penggunaan premix. Premix terdiri dari beberapa campuran bahan yang memiliki karakteristik yang berbeda yang mempengaruhi hasil akhir cake dan umur simpan premix. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efek dari perbedaan suhu terhadap kualitas sponge cake premix sehingga dapat mengetahui umur simpan pada setiap suhu dan untuk mengetahui hubungan antar suhu, serta untuk mengetahui korelasi antara densitas adonan sponge cake dengan karakter fisik dan kimia yang dimiliki sponge cake. Sponge cake premix disimpan dalam climatic chamber selama 3 minggu pada suhu dan kelembapan relative yang terkontrol. Suhu yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah 19±2oC, 27oC, dan 37oC pada kelembaban relative sebesar 75%. Pada karakteristik kimia dan fisik dari sponge cake didapati bahwa kadar air dan aktivitas air dari sponge cake premix tidak mempengaruhi adonan sponge cake secara signifikan (p > 0,05). Densitas adonan sponge cake mempengaruhi viskositas adonan, volume adonan dan volume akhir sponge cake secara signifikan (p < 0,05). Densitas adonan sponge cake juga mempengaruhi tekstur sponge cake secara signifikan (p <0 ,05). Pada pendugaan umur simpan berdasarkan densitas adonan sponge cake menggunakan Arrhenius model, umur simpan dari sponge cake premix adalah 110 hari (pada suhu 21oC), 47 hari (pada 27oC) dan 12 hari (pada 37oC). Jadi umur simpan sponge cake yang paling panjang adalah pada suhu 19±2oC.
