Enthalpy relaxation experiments were conducted in freeze-dried raspberry powder at 5, 10 and 15 °C below its onset glass transition temperature (Tgi) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The statistical differences in Tgi for the raspberry powders aged at (Tgi − 5), (Tgi − 10), and (Tgi...
