Abstract
Cake, Biscuits, Muffins, Bread, Noodles, and Toast are the among those food items which are popular bakery items, these food items are used by almost all type of the societies in Pakistan. The popularity of these food items is due to the low cost compared to other treated food items, these food items contain a good amount of the nutritional constituents and these are available in various forms, having varied taste and have a long shelf life.

The amount of nutritional ingredients of the final product depends upon the choice of the recommended quantity of raw ingredients during preparation. The aim of the current study was to analyze and compare different food parameters like protein, moisture, ash, fat, water absorption index (WAI) and fiber, of bakery products i.e. Biscuits, Cakes, Muffins, Bread, Toast, and Noodles made from commercially available flour of wheat in the supermarket of Sukkur City, Sindh and across Pakistan.
