Resumen
A research was made taking advantage of the high
acceptation consumers have of the traditional product
known as arequipe, and an added value was given to
it by the addition of natural fruit’s fruits flavor. Our aim
was to develop a new product with the desired
characteristics of taste, odor and color which are the
appropriate for each fruit, without affecting some of
the organoleptic properties of the arequipe, such as
its soft texture and its mellow consistence, which allows
it to be softly sproden on other foods. Se realizó una investigación aprovechando la buena
aceptación por parte de los consumidores de un producto tradicional como el arequipe, al que se le dio
valor agregado con sabores naturales de frutas.
Se buscó desarrollar un producto con atributos deseados de sabor, olor y color característicos de cada
fruta, pero sin que afectara algunas de las propiedades organolépticas propias del arequipe como son:
textura suave al paladar y una consistencia para untar suavemente.
