Comparison of aroma profile of selected types of sweets
Polochová, Petra ; Zemanová, Jana (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on identification of aroma active substances and sensory analysis in samples of non-chocolate sweets. For experimental part jelly candies were chosen as model samples. Specifically gummy bears with strawberry, lemon, apple and orange flavour were used. The theoretical part deals with the legislation and technology of manufacturing non-chocolate sweets, characterization of aroma compounds including those which could be allergenic. Furthermore this thesis describes a method of their determination using solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. The end of the theoretical part is dedicated to methods of sensory analysis that were used. In the experimental part, the chosen method HS-SPME-GC-MS was used to identify volatile aroma active substances in selected samples of jelly sweets. The substances that are potentially allergenic were also quantified. For the evaluation of sensory quality scales, profile test and overall acceptability were used. The single samples differ in number and type of volatile compounds depending on producer and flavour. Altogether 119 compounds were identified including 12 allergenic.

Maňáková, Adriena ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This thesis deals with the assessment of aroma active compounds in non-chocolate confectionery and their influence on sensory quality. In the theoretical part the production technology of non-chocolate confectionery from raw materials to final product is described. Furthermore, aroma active substances, including those potentially allergenic, are characterized, and the method for their determination by solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry is briefly described. Sensory analysis and sensory evalutation methods are briefly desribed. Within expermental part of the work selected parametres of the HS-SPME-GC-MS method were optimized, aroma compounds in samples of hard candies were identified, and 24 potentially allergenic aroma substances were identified and quantified. Finally, a sensory analysis of these samples was performed. Differences in the number and type of volatile compounds were found between the samples. Overall 393 compounds were indetified including 19 allergens.

Sensory evaluation of sweets
Boboková, Alexandra ; Burdějová, Lenka (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with a sensory analysis of a selected type of non-chocolate sweets – gummy jellies with sour coating. The theoretical part describes raw materials needed for the production of non-chocolate sweets, a list of non-chocolate sweets and their technological production are also mentioned. Sensory analysis and sensory evaluation methods are briefly described. The experimental part is focused on sensory analysis of selected yellow-coloured/lemon flavoured samples from five different producers. The samples were evaluated using a scale based on their appearance, colour, flavour, aroma and texture. Furthermore, the sensory profile and evaluation of aftertaste using time intensity methods were applied. Common consumers were represented by 20 untrained assessors from the Faculty of Chemistry of BUT. Bright colour contributed positively, while hard texture negatively to the overall evaluation of samples.

Sensory quality of selected types of sweets
Michalíková, Veronika ; Němcová, Andrea (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the sensory evaluation of selected types of non-chocolate sweets. In the theoretical part the production technology of non-chocolate sweets is described, including raw materials needed. Furthermore, basics of sensory analysis with characteristics of sensory evaluation and selected sensory methods are mentioned. The experimental part deals with the sensory evaluation itself; the selected sensory methods were applied on samples of gummy sweets. Four colours/flavours (strawberry, orange, lemon, apple) from five producers were chosen for evaluation, together 20 samples. The aim was to assess the differences in sensory quality of samples of the same type from different producers. Untrained assessors, from Faculty of Chemistry BUT, were invited for sensory evaluations. Significant differences were found among the samples, glossy appearance and pleasant characteristic taste contributed to the positive evaluation, on the contrary the rigid texture, bland taste and odour and possible off-flavour contributed to the negative evaluation.
