Abstract
Abstract
Ice cream is a widely consumed frozen dairy product; however, its high saturated fat content can cause health problems for consumers. Therefore, it is important to develop healthier ice creams using alternative raw materials. The objective of this study was to develop and characterize an ice cream formulated with avocado pulp and powdered egg white to obtain a healthy and technologically viable ice cream aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals. The methodology included formulating the ice cream according to NTC 1239, based on a 22 centered-face experimental design. The independent variables were avocado pulp (0-20) and powdered egg white (0-12), and the response variables were overrun percentage, first drop time, and average melting rate. The ice cream formula was optimized using a multiple response methodology. The optimized formulation was evaluated for several physicochemical and rheological properties, fatty acid profile, microstructure, and sensory acceptance. The overrun percentage, fall time, and melting rate ranged from 14.67% to 31.67%, 6.71 to 28.36 min, and 0.18 to 0.84 g/min, respectively. The optimal formulation consisted of 11.8% avocado pulp and 7.6% powdered egg white. Fatty acid analysis revealed an increase in monounsaturated fatty acids, particularly oleic acid. The resulting ice cream can be classified as artisanal/super premium. Overall, avocado pulp and egg white proved to be effective functional ingredients for improving both the nutritional quality and technological performance of the ice cream.
