Sucrose Replacement by Sweeteners in Strawberry, Raspberry, and Cherry Jams: Effect on the Textural Characteristics and Sensorial Profile—A Chemometric Approach

Table 3

Differences between various sugars tested for the rheological parameters evaluated: gel strength, rupture strength, and adhesiveness, in strawberry jam with the different sugar formulations. For the parameter fragility there were not found any significant differences.
