Zusammenfassung:Coffee silverskin (CS) is a by-product of the coffee roasting process that is known for its potential as a fiber source with antioxidant properties. Therefore, this study aimed to provide an overview of the latest research on CS as a potential ingredient for functional foods and to evaluate the effect of adding different amounts of CS on the functional and sensory attributes of chocolate cakes. The addition of CS increased the total dietary fiber content, antioxidant capacity and the contents of extractable and non-extractable phenolics in the cakes. The evaluated sensory attributes were color, smell, taste, texture and overall impression, and they were evaluated according to a 9-point hedonic scale. Internal preference maps were obtained based on the results from acceptance and "intention to buy" tests. In general, the cakes with lower coffee silverskin content (2.6% and 3.6%) had a similar level of acceptance and the cake with 4.6% coffee silverskin content was the least accepted. The most important attributes were taste and overall impression, corresponding to "like slightly" and "like moderately" for the cakes that had better acceptance. Nonetheless, even with the lowest amount of added CS (2.6%), the produced cakes could be regarded as antioxidant fiber sources (with fiber content above 3 g/100 g), thus confirming the potential of CS as a functional food additive.
