To optimize the quantity of ingredients to be added, Response Surface Methodology was used. Statistical software Stat-Ease was used for statistical and graphical analysis of the experimental data. It was found that the sensory scores were 7.2, 8.4, 7.8 & 7.7 for color, flavor, texture and overall acceptability corresponding to optimum conditions.展开更多
