Cake de Lune: A space-themed food product
Chapter 2
This chapter contains a comprehensive overview of the relevant literature and studies
that share the same bearing of knowledge to this present study. Further, it includes the
hypothesis which states the prediction of the study that is being conducted. To serve as
the basis for the study, numerous related literature and study are cited.
Food Appearance
Contemporarily, food visualization has become a vital factor in shaping customer loyalty
and satisfaction, resulting in a memorable experience for those people who visit the
restaurant. The element of visualizing the presence of food in the restaurant must
equate to the food quality. In order to attain customer loyalty and satisfaction, there are
components of the material used, color range, food texture, shape and size, and design.
the flavor of the food, the range of menus, and the nutritional value of the food.
According to the findings, appearance and food quality have a substantial positive
According to Ueda, Spence, and Okajima, (2020), everything we see influences what
we taste, including the color, the opacity, and the type of food we consume. They
reported two studies, using the new Augmented Reality technology to investigate the
effects of the standard deviation of the luminance distribution of food images on the

perceived visual texture and taste or flavor sensation. Furthermore, the effects of
modifying the luminance distribution standard deviation (SD) of a German baked cake
and tomato ketchup on its visual perception, taste expectations, and subsequent taste
experience were examined. The result finds that the manipulation of the luminance
distribution's standard deviation (SD) affected not only the desired taste or flavor of the
food, such as anticipated moistness, wateriness, and deliciousness but also the actual
In accordance with the study of Kpossa and Lick (2020), they aimed to discern how to
address how the surface color of black and white impacts consumer tastes like sensory
and hedonic in which the pastry is presented. Respectively, before tasting (stage 1) and
after tasting (stage 2). Additionally, between stage 1 and stage 2, they aim to identify
a result, in stage 1, customers seem to have a high degree of recognition of the true
taste, with some concerns regarding the colors of light brown, yellow, and dark brown.
In addition, the evaluation of the sensory qualities of crispiness, creamy texture, and
sweetness, as well as the hedonic appeal and purchase intention, tends to be higher in
stage 2 compared to stage 1. Moreover, there are no significant effects of plate color on
greasiness, crispiness, creamy texture, and sweetness, along with the hedonic value
and purchase intent, were observed in stage 1 and stage 2. Even then, the macaron
colors orange, pink, light brown, lemon, and white have higher expectations of grease

Fujimoto (2019) proposes a method for automatically modifying the appearance of food
visually perceived by an individual. The name of the system is the Food Appearance
Optimizer. The proposed method examines the presence of food in a camera image
and with the use of a projector to project a suitable image of the food. On the basis of
degree of subjective delicacies and four essential appearance characteristics for each
projection picture using this model to maximize the visual deliciousness of the food.
The study of Shibuya, Miyamoto, Santa, Homma, Hosono, and Sato (2020), examines
how images of open and closed eyes affect human emotions. As well, the presence of
open eyes influences generous behavior by modifying the assessment of the visual
deliciousness of the food. It is well recognized that the picture of the eye encourages
generosity. It is also understood that the assessment of food's visual delicacy increases
participants were shown a picture of food and asked to predict and score its visual
deliciousness. Moreover, the nine-point Likert score for visual delight showed a
significant difference between the OPEN and the CLOSED conditions; the OPEN
ratings were significantly higher than those in the CLOSED condition. In the perceived
relaxation condition, there was no significant difference in the image of watchful eyes;

OPEN ratings were not significantly higher than those in the CLOSED case. The
findings of the present study revealed that the presence of an image of a watchful eye,
which raised the perceived visual delicacy of the food without affecting the participants'
emotions, was responsible for the evaluation of the visual delicacy of the food based on
its appearance.
Price
Price justice and satisfaction positively influence their revisit intention of restaurant
customers, also revisit intention positively influences the loyalty of restaurant customers.
While revisit intention fully mediates the effect of price justice and loyalty, it partially
mediates the effect of satisfaction and loyalty (Cakici, Akgunduz, & Yildirm, 2019).
are addressed in the literature with the use of the price factor of the commodity. The
price of the good shall be divided into three dimensions: equal price, set price, and
relative price. In addition, brand awareness variables are often used as mediators of
price and customer buying decisions and are seen as significant considerations
influencing consumers. At the same time, the appearance and pricing of the company
(fair price and set price) have a partial and constructive impact on the purchase
decision.
The study of Lemmerer and Menrad (2019) stated that a consumer perspective on
understanding the success of new food products pursues two core goals. It
demonstrates that buyers are more likely to perceive new product prices as delivering

psychographics are seen to have a direct or mild impact on new product uptake on
food items. Price awareness and shopping preferences moderate price and promotional
impacts.
According to Yan, Tian, Heravi, and Morgan (2017), price promotion has a greater
impact on virtue than vice-preferences for healthy food since customers have
comparatively more self-control over healthier goods. It limits the number of purchases
targets. Consumers, on the other hand, have comparatively less self-control over
mechanism. Thus, price advertising has a greater impact on vices than on unsafe food
decisions.
Haryanto, Purwanto, Dewi, and Cahyono (2019) stated that price and cost are the
factors that influence the positive attitude and the purchase intention while the ease is
the variable found not to affect both the positive attitude and the purchase intention.
Product consistency and comfort are factors that affect the optimistic outlook but do not
affect the purchase intention. For restaurant food, it shows that only prices and quality
have an impact on positive attitudes, whereas comfort does not have an impact on
positive attitudes. Moreover, it is only price and consistency that influence the purchase
intention, whereas ease is found to have little effect on the purchase intention.

growing number of competitors, make innovation not only necessary but also one of the
most significant corporate activities for achieving overall agribusiness benefit gains.
Bigliardi (2019) stated that Traditional food products (TFPs) are gaining popularity in
Europe, as evidenced by their increasing demand over time. TFPs are typically
associated with quality and a return to tradition, but consumers are increasingly
demanding better, more nutritious, and more convenient TFPs. As a result, although

According to Karki and Panthi (2018) , satisfaction with the university cafeteria is largely
determined by the consistency of the food and beverages served. Food quality refers to
the characteristics of food that a consumer considers suitable. Food quality assessment
includes the overall quality of the food and beverage, as well as the taste, freshness,
nutritional value, and portion size. Food and beverage quality has been given a lot of
attention as a core product of a food service operation, and it's been tested for a lot of
things like temperature, texture, flavor, and aroma. Customers' plans to return to a
particular restaurant are thought to be influenced by the nature of the food and
beverages served.

cake chocolate products indicates that there is a difference where consumers feel that
the performance of chocolate small and medium-sized products is still below the value
of importance.

Food Appearance
The appearance of the food is effective in raising customer satisfaction. This is evident
by the studies of the team of Putra(2018), Kpossa & Lick(2020), Fujimoto(2019), the
group of Ueda(2020), and the squad of Shibuya(2020). The study of Putra, Wulan, &
Ingkadijaya focuses on identifying factors that raise customer satisfaction. The research
of Kpossa and Lick aims to identify whether people can tell the greasiness, crispiness,
creamy texture, and sweetness through the appearance of the food. The study of
Fujimoto is an experimental paper that aims to modify the appearance of the food
through the usage of the Food Appearance Optimizer. He also wanted to discover its
effects on Customer Satisfaction. The paper of Ueda, Spence, and Okajima is also
experimental. Using Augmented Reality technology, they altered the appearance of the
food and discovered its effects. The study of Shibuya, Miyamoto, Santa, Homma,

Hosono, and Sato is similar to the research of Fujimoto and the team of Ueda. Their
study revealed that calmness can elevate the evaluation of the visual delicacy of the
food.
Price
Price is a major factor whenever a customer intends to purchase. This is evident by the
team of Yan(2017), and the squad of Haryanto(2019). The study of Cakici, Akgunduz, &
Yildirm focuses on the relationship of price and revisit intention of customers. The

Menrad states that consumers are more likely to interpret new product prices as a
benefit or loss based on their purchasing history. The study of Yan, Tian, Heravi, and

Innovation is important for the business to retain market share. This is evident by the
studies of Klimczu and Kochańska (2018), the team of Purba (2018), Bigliardi (2019),
Larina (2017), and the group of Albertsen (2020). The study of Klimczu and Kochańska
focuses on the definition of innovation. The research of Purba, Maarif, Yuliasih, and
Hermawan discovered that food-related innovations are different from innovations from
other industries. This is because it focuses more on the product and processes while
other industries are focused on inventing a new product. The paper of Bigliardi found
that Traditional Food Products (TFPs) are increasing in demand. Furthermore, the
increase of quality in TFPs is increasing as well. The study of Larina stated that the
new products and technologies. The research of Albertsen, Wiedmann, and Schmidt
states that innovation has benefits for the customers and the businesses. Customers
benefit from innovation gains while businesses can retain their market share and
positioning.
evident by the studies of Harper (2019) and Karki & Panthi (2018). Harper stated in his
research that taste, experience, personalization, and sustainability are the factors that a
customer values. The study of Karki and Panthi discovered that the nature of the food
and beverages served are factors that contribute to the return intent of the customer.
Chocolate Flavor
Chocolate flavor has a positive effect on customer satisfaction. This evident by the
studies of Purba (2019) and Putri, Nisa, Yee, Kee, Min, Yi, & Xin (2020). The study of
Purba discovered that chocolate bread and cake will have a strong chance of being well
received by the market. The study of Putri, Nisa, Yee, Kee, Min, Yi, & Xin identified that
