This study was conducted to investigate the effects of garlic powder on medium and cake flours using falling number and RVA tests, as well as alveograms and farinograms. The garlic powder was added to the medium and cake flour bases at 2 and 4%, respectively. Falling numbers increased with the addition of garlic powder. The peak viscosity of the medium flour containing 2% garlic powder was highest while that made with 4% garlic powder showed a decrease in peak viscosity. The addition of garlic powder increased the set-back value, thus the garlic powder did not have an anti-retrogradation effect. The alveographic P values of the treatment were lower than that of the control, but the L value was not significantly different. On the farinogram, water absorption was decreased in the flours containing garlic powder and development time was increased. In conclusion, the addition of 2% garlic powder is recommended to improve the volume and stability of cake.
