Moreover, after prohibition of the usage of chemical whiteners like benzoyl peroxide, in many developed countries like China, the manufacturers of steamed bread raised concerns of the final product not being as appealing as customers have learned to accept. The concern was well-acknowledged by Lipase, that can reduce the betacarotene in flour and thus produce whiter steamed bread. The trend even raised the demand for enzymes in the industry. Fungal amylase and xylanase are said to produce steamed bread with a smoother surface, which gives a shiny impression.
