This descriptive research was an attempt to develop a jam using pineapple as

proportion to produce an acceptable Dragon fruit-Pineapple Jam. This study provided

answers to which among of the proportions was most acceptable in terms of

appearance, aroma, taste and texture as evaluated by the respondents.

Specifically, this study aimed to answer the following questions:

1. What is the most accepted proportion of dragon fruit and pineapple in making

jam as evaluated by the respondents in terms of aroma, taste, appearance, texture?

2. Is there a significant difference in the level of accepted proportion of dragon

fruit and pineapple jam as evaluated by the respondents in terms of aroma, taste,

appearance, and texture?

3. What is the cost of the most accepted proportion of Dragon fruit and pineapple

jam?

This is to determine the most accepted proportion of Dragon fruit-Pineapple

Jam. This study aimed to determine the level of acceptability of the different

proportions of Dragon fruit Pineapple Jam in terms of appearance, aroma, taste and

texture.

The finished product was evaluated by a group of twenty (20) respondents

composed of students, teachers and staff of Iloilo Science and Technology University

(ISAT U), La Paz Campus.

The sensory evaluation using the standard five (5) point Hedonic Scale was used.

Score sheets were collected and all responses were recorded, tallied, summarized and

interpreted. Mean was used to determine the level of acceptability of the different

proportions of the Dragon fruit-Pineapple Jam in terms of appearance, aroma, taste and

texture and ANOVA was used to determine whether there is a significant difference in

the level of accepted proportions as to appearance, aroma, taste and texture.

The result of the study showed that there was a significant difference among the

different proportions. And the cost of the most acceptable proportion which is

proportion D.

The result of the different proportions of Dragon fruit-Pineapple Jam as to

appearance revealed that proportion D had the highest mean of 4.35 while proportion C

had the lowest mean rating of 4.05. This means that as to appearance, proportion D was

highly accepted by the respondents.
