Instron measurement and sensory analysis of sponge cake texture was performed under various conditions. The samples were compared on the basis of their storage in modified atmosphere (CO 2 /N 2 , 50:50 v) or not, at + 4°C or + 20°C, as whole cakes or slices of cake, and with or without additives (soya bean protein or sodium alginate). It was found that the best conditions for preservation of a soft texture in a whole cake are obtained in a modified atmosphere at +4°C when 10 g kg −1 soya bean protein is included in the sponge cake formulation.
