| description | Commercial sweet buns are selected by consumers based on several factors such as its
convenience, shelf life and taste. The commercial sweet buns are usually filled with different
types of paste. The ingredients and nutrient contents of the commercial sweet buns are usually
well known to other people through the printed information on the packaging. However,
detailed and scientific comparison on the nutritional composition of the buns are seldom carried
out. In this study, the nutritional composition of five types of different flavours of commercial
sweet buns such as chocolate, kaya, red bean, coconut and potato bun is analysed with a
mathematical technique named as Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal
Solution (TOPSIS). The analysis of this study has identified the type of bun that has the most
nutrient contents which are good for health and has the least of non-benefit nutrient contents
that are bad for health. The result could be served as a reference for people who is conscious
on nutrition and health. |
