Texture analysis of plant-based confectionery

by Carl Bramley, Product Manager Mecmesin

Plant-based food alternatives need to hit the sensory marks of visual appeal, smell, and taste, but also ensure they don’t fall at the last hurdle of texture.

Compression

Compression testing is a way of determining how something will react when a compressive force is applied to it. It typically involves measuring the relationship between the applied force and how much the object deforms. It is performed to:

reverse ratchet torque

In two-part CRCs, the outer shell engages the inner with a one-way ratchet when pressed down. This test turns the outer cap shell anticlockwise to ensure there is insufficient friction to remove the cap.
