Abstract: Disclosed herein are baked goods with improved properties that contain pregelatinized waxy cassava starch, and methods of making such baked goods. In some embodiments the baked goods comprise between 1% and 10% by weight waxy cassava starch. In embodiments the baked goods have equal or better crumb firmness than baked goods using chemically modified starches.

Abstract: A sugar coating or glaze with reducing sugars greater than about 16.5% and a viscosity ranging between 170 and 650 cP is applied onto an uncooked dough product during a continuous process in the production of baked snack foods. The sugar coating has a pH of between about 1.7-3.3. The glaze maintains its form as a liquid free of solids at room temperatures despite the presence of sugars over 60% refined sugars. The glaze is applied onto a dough the glazed product is then baked, forming a glazed baked snack food product having at least 5% of a smooth, shiny glaze on a surface of the snack food product.
