Abstract

Almonds have a high folic acid content and are beneficial for pregnant women and the growth of babies in the womb and the high protein content can help the diet process. Sweet corn is high in folic acid to prevent congenital abnormalities in babies and high in starch to form the texture of cookies. This research aims to determine the results of sensory tests or the panelists' level of preference for almond flour and sweet corn flour cookies. This research method used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 1 formulation variation factor carried out 3 times with a ratio of almond flour : sweet corn flour, namely F1 (100 % : 0 %), F2 (75 % : 25 %), F3 (50 %). % : 50%), F4 (25 % : 75 %) and F5 (0 % : 100 %). The parameters analyzed are sensory tests including texture, color, taste, aroma and overall preference. The experiment was tested with 30 untrained panelists. Data were analyzed using analysis of variances (ANOVA) with further tests using Duncan at a confidence level of 95%. The results of the sensory test of almond flour and sweet corn flour cookies had a significant effect on the parameters of texture, color, taste, aroma and overall preference. The sensory test results obtained were texture 2.70-4.07 (from dislike to like), color 2.40-4.20 (from dislike to like), taste 2.87-4.10 (from dislike to like), aroma 2.97-3.87 (from dislike to like), and overall liking 2.93 to 4.13 (from dislike to like).
