    This study presents a promising avenue for creating a nutritious snack that maintains the essence of traditional chicharrón. It aimed to standardize the formulation and process; evaluate sensory qualities, microbiological quality, physicochemical properties, consumer acceptability, and shelf life; compute production cost; and create a marketing plan. The research design used developmental, descriptive, experimental, and quantitative methods to test three formulations with varied milkfish skin chicharrones ratios. Treatment 1 was most acceptable, earning the highest sensory rating and excellent microbiological results 260 CFU/g, aerobic plate count, mold, and yeast below 10 CFU/g,
