2. Mass balance
2.1 Calculating ingredients
The weight of the egg after removing the shell and weighing is 55.5g
With the mass ratio of egg at 13%, we can calculate the mass of other ingredients
megg = 55.5 (g)

2.2 Cookies product


- Mass of all ingredents: 426.92 (g)
- Mass of cookies: 350 (g)
mloss = mingredients – mcookies = 426.92 – 350 = 76.92 (g)
mloss 76.92
% loss = x 100% = x 100% = 18.02%
mingredients 426.92

The amount of loss is relatively high, mainly due to the shaping process causing loss on
the mold and on the triangle bag. In addition, the baking process that evaporates water
also causes high loss.
Yield = 100% - % loss = 100% - 18.02% = 81.98%
