The Relationship Between Flour Particle Size and Cake-Volume Potential Among Eastern Soft Wheats.

A high negative correlation has been found for white layer cake volume vs. mass-median diameter of laboratory-milled cake flours obtained from pure-variety wheats. Cake volume was also highly associated inversely with mass-median diameters of straight-grade and coarsely milled flours, and directly with the quantity of sifted meal from wheats milled to obtain patent flours for cake baking. Varietal differences in cake potential for these wheats thus appeared to be associated largely with inherent differences in endosperm friability.
