ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to determine the right concentration of pineapple juice addition to carrot juice hard candy. Knowing the chemical characteristic of carrot juice hard candy added with pineapple juice. Evaluating the panelist preference for carrot juice hard candy added with pineapple juice. This study used a completely randomized design (RAL) method consisting of 5 treatments and 3 replications of the addition of pineapple juice: (10%), (15%), (20%), (25%), (30%). Then chemical analysis was carried out to determine the water content, ash content and reducing sugar content and a organoleptic test. The results of this is the value of water content has an average of 1.47% - 3.10%, the value of ash content is 0,0120% - 0,0204% and the value of reducing sugar content is 11.42% - 13.63%.
