The Evaluation of Virgin Coconut Oil Chocolate Spread Based on CATA Descriptive Analysis and Hedonic Test

Almirah Zahirah - Personal Name;

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is a functional food oil that became increasingly popular as a nutritional supplement and functional food. In the early days, VCO was taken directly like a medicine, but due to the oil's unpleasant raw flavor, many people disliked it. This problem might be handled by applying VCO to other products as other vegetable oil substitutes. The food product with the greatest potential for VCO application is chocolate. Chocolate spread is a product that utilizes oil as one of the main
ingredients. Palm kernel oil (PKO) is used as a cocoa butter substitute (CBS) in chocolate products because of cocoa butter's high demand, high cost, and impact on the texture of chocolate spread. However, as it is implied that palm is not environmentally friendly, finding another cocoa butter substitute (CBS) is necessary. Due to its high lauric acid content, VCO could be utilized as CBS. The research aimed to determine the differences between lab-made VCO, commercial VCO, and PKO chocolate spread on sensory attribute perceived and acceptance. This research uses CATA descriptive analysis and hedonic test. From the result, it was found that nine attributes differed significantly among the samples. The hedonic result revealed that the significant difference in acceptance is only in the melt-in-mouth attribute, with lab-made VCO as the sample with the highest score. This led the labmade VCO to have the highest overall quality scored, followed by commercial VCO, and lastly PKO chocolate spread.
