SENSORY PROFILE OF FLAVORED MILK DRINK GREEN APPLE AND PEACH USING QUANTITATIVE DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS

Abstract

This paper aims at determining the sensory profile of milk drink flavored green apple and peach using the process called Quantitative Descriptive Analyses method (QDA). We have selected assessor candidates through the application of 100 questionnaires. Initially, 62 assessors were recruited and, 8 trained people were obtained. QDA samples containing two inputs at the concentrations had been formulated to perform the test. They were indicated by the dairy partner of this work then offered to 8 trained panelists with the evaluation form. Averages were calculated and subsequently was held the making of the radial graph. It can be seen to drink milk green apple flavor, which the attributes aroma, sweetness and color have higher average when compared with others attributes. The viscosity and acidity have average values and a low residual taste value. The average acidity and viscosity may be due to the kind of formulation used. It was observed that the drink milk peach flavor, aroma and sweetness attributes had higher average when compared with other attributes. These had average values. Thus we have concluded, there is no high discrepancy among the attributes analyzed when compared between samples of green apple and peach, demonstrating that the product possesses good standardization with relation to the sensory attributes evaluated, already they use the same basic mix for both flavors.
