Bakery products that contain main part of food process industries usually made with wheat flour and establish a stable gluten network when mixed with water. Although presence of gluten proteins in wheat flour is a unique property, but substituting of wheat flour with other cereal grains up to a certain limit is possible. In current research three different millet varieties namely Proso, Pearl and Foxtail millet were used. Millet flour was used in proportions of 10, 30, 50 and 100% in replacing wheat flour in a cake recipe. Sensorial properties, textural attributes and color indices were evaluated. Results showed that increase in millet concentration in cake formulation decreased the efficiency properties of cooking of dough. Cake height decreased with increase in millet concentration in dough. Pearl millet showed a better cake volume in comparing with the two other millets. Cake cohesiveness decreased with increase in millet substitution and these variations was the same for all varieties. Millet composition in dough decreased adhesiveness of the product. Cakes with higher millet composition showed higher hardness. Totally, Pearl millet produced better cakes in comparison with Proso and Foxtail millets. Total acceptability of millet cakes obtained higher scores at sensory analysis. Considering all characteristics used in current study, 30% substitution level suggested as the best substitution level. The results of current research are valuable at bakery products containing millets.

The basis for modeling the shelf life of snacks enriched with Spirulina platensis is the storage temperature. After production, the snacks were packed in polypropylene bags and stored at 25°C (room temperature) and 5°C (refrigerator) for a specified period of 180 days. Shelf life studies were performed by semi-educated and consumer panelists. During this period, microbial tests (total count of bacteria, mold, yeast and coliform), moisture content and hardness were examined. Weibull hazard analysis was used to estimate the shelf life of snacks enriched with Spirulina platensis powder based on sensory properties assessment. Considering the 25% and 50% probability of rejection, the shelf life at 5 ° C for enriched and control samples was 98, 67 and 184, 158 days and at 25 ° C for 189, 125,217 and 321 respectively Were estimated. Also, the equation of shelf life with the probability of rejection by consumers was presented. Finally, enriched and control snacks were microbiologically evaluated. The results showed that the enriched and control snack samples were completely microbiologically safe for consumption over a 360-day period.
