Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the suitable formula of high energy nutrient jelly to obtain the most acceptable formula by investigated 3 formulas with different flavors: vanilla, cocoa, and coffee with the Randomized Randomized - Complete Block Design (RCBD). The sensory quality then was evaluated for visual appearance, color, odor, taste, texture and overall preference by rating the 9 - Point Hedonic Scale by 80 participants who were teachers and students, Program in Food and Nutrition, Faculty of Home Economics Technology, Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. The variance was analyzed by the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and the difference of Mean was analyzed by the Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The data was analyzed by computer program. Based on 3 formulas of high energy nutrient jelly, it was found that cocoa had the highest preference score with the preference score for visual appearance, color, odor, taste, texture and overall preference of 7.55, 7.57, 7.87, 7.52, 7.25 and 7.45 respectively, which were considered as be in the medium level. The analysis of variance and comparison of statistical differences were found that for the taste was not statistically significant difference in three formulas. For the visual appearance, color, odor, texture and overall preference were statistically significant different at 95% confidence level. From studying the nutritional value of high energy jelly nutrition. Found that high energy nutrition jelly at 100 grams. Providing complete energy and nutrients With 96.74 kilo calories of energy. Provide nutrients 4.97 grams of protein, 13.05 grams of carbohydrates and 2.74 grams of fat per 100 grams of consumption which affects health. Health can be used as a supplement or substitute in patients with malnutrition or elderly people who suffer from anorexia to get enough energy and nutrients to meet the needs of the body
