Principal incorporation of coffee extracts with CGAs into food products a.

Food Product Technological Improvement Extract Conditions CGAs Content in Green Coffee Extract Major Findings Sensory Evaluation References
Fried doughnuts Dough stability Heated at 110 °C for 15 min and Freeze-dried 25.5 g/100 g Dough stability was not affected during mixing and GCA showed high stability increasing antioxidant activity No significant difference up to 1% of GCE addition
(Score 5–4.9)
[175]
Instant coffee Fortification Heated at high pressure at 180 °C for percolation and extraction 14.0 g/100 g Enriched coffee with green coffee extract showed high antioxidant potential but decreased sensory score No significant difference in C. arabica samples
(Score 7.3–6.8)
[176]
Soymilk Fortification Heated aqueous extraction (1:10 w/v) at 100 °C for 1 h N.A. Phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity content increased significantly, and overall digestibility improved No decrease in the acceptance level up to 0.25 mg/mL of CGA
(Overall score 4.3–5.2)
[177]
Wheat bread Dough stability and fortification Heated aqueous extraction at 60, 70 and 80 °C for 1 h 37.3 g/100 g GCE addition increased CGAs and antioxidant activity in bread, baking quality was not affected. Maximum level of GCE without adverse effect was 1.5% flour basis (Overall score 64–60) [178]
Liquid Khask Enrichment Heated aqueous extraction (1:10 w/v) at 100 °C for 30 min and encapsulated with water and oil emulsion 39.1 g/100 g Encapsulated GCE protected color. pH remained unaffected and rheological properties were not affected and antioxidant activity highly increased No significant difference up to 1% of encapsulated GCE addition(Score 4.7–4.9) [179]
Dark
chocolate
Enrichment Heated aqueous extraction (1:5 w/v) at 80 °C for 30 and encapsulated N.A. Addition of CGAs (free and encapsulated) had no significant effect on dark chocolate color. However, the addition of free or encapsulated CGAs had a significant effect on chocolate flavor. This adverse effect of CGAs on chocolate flavor were lower in the case of encapsulated form addition No significant difference in the bitterness up to 50.1 mg/5 kg of encapsulated CGAs
(Score 1.5–2)
[180]
Yoghurt Enrichment Heated aqueous extraction
(1:6 w/v) at 70 °C for 1 h. The extract was filtered and concentrated by evaporation (70 °C, 30 min) and spray drying
46.5 g/100 g  Green coffee-enriched
yoghurt have desirable pH (4.7), acidity, color, and minimum syneresis.
The flavor, texture and other sensory attributes of yoghurt were improved.
Higher score in overall acceptance up to 2% w/v of GCE [181]
