The impact of these two parameters is decisive in the marketing of biscuits such as madeleines. This study focuses on improving the softness and shelf life of traditional madeleines produced by the Breton company Les D\u00e9lices de Marie. In response to this request, we carried out a series of experiments to optimise the recipe for small and large madeleines, with a view to approaching a benchmark. The project was carried out in two phases structured around experimental designs.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The first phase, called screening, aimed to identify the ingredients that influence texture and preservation. Literature searches were used to target four key factors: type of flour, fat, incorporation of eggs and addition of milk powder. Ten formulas were tested on D0, D2 and D7 using instrumental analysis (TPA, humidity) and sensory analysis (softness, dryness, taste). The whipped egg whites proved the most effective in improving the softness, followed by the T45 flour\/clarified butter mix. Milk powder was discarded as it increased hardness.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>During the second phase, known as optimisation, twelve formulas were developed, varying clarified butter (17.3-25%), glycerine (2-5%) and the proportion of whipped egg whites (50-80%). The evaluations were based on the initial tests, supplemented by a preference test (JAR, 60 consumers) and an expert ranking (Friedmann test). The optimal formula is as follows: 17.3% butter, 5% glycerine, 50% whipped cream. It is softer than the original recipe and keeps longer. An industrial implementation and work on the packaging are envisaged to increase the shelf life of the madeleines.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>KEY WORDS: madeleines, softness, screening, optimisation, reformulation.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reformulation of artisanal madeleines to improve softness and shelf life Ana\u00efs Renoud1, Lily Hou\u00ebl1, Maya Pinchot1, Manon Poirier1, Axelle Vouillon1, El\u00e9onore Blanchard-Bousquet1, Cl\u00e9mence Durchon1, Marie-Neige Escoffier1, Pauline Escolier1, M\u00e9rine Guigueno1, Grace Emmanuela Koffi1, Benjamine Krudup1, Caroline Mombelli1, Sylvia Imbart1, Marc Lavarde1 1 Ecole de Biologie Industrielle, EBInnov, 49 Avenue des Genottes, 95895, Cergy Cedex, France &#8230; <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/la-revue\/volume-8-n4-2026\/v8_4-2026_4\/\">Lire la suite<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":344,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/354"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=354"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/354\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":378,"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/354\/revisions\/378"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ijodir.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
