Abstract
The study aimsto develop calamansi peel powder as flavoring and seasoning. The standardized calamansi peel powder as flavoring is composed of 9.34% of calamansi peel powder as for seasoning composed of 35.09% of calamansi peel powder. The calamansi peel powder as flavoring and seasoning was acceptable to both consumer and trained panelist. The physicochemical properties of flavoring are carbohydrate content of 33.7g/100g, crude ash content of 6.98g/100g, crude fat of 0.445g/100g and protein of 1.27g/100g. As seasoning, exhibited a water activity of 0.607, moisture content of 4.18g/100g, crude ash of 16.4g/100g, crude fat of 0.617g/100g, and total carbohydrates of 73g/100g. The microbiological qualities of flavoring are aerobic plate count of 27,000 CFU/g and yeast and mold count of 80CFU/g as for seasoning, aerobic plate count of 23,000 CFU/g and yeast and mold count of 600 CFU/g. The packaging for the flavoring was a clear glass sauce bottle, while the seasoning was a square glass spice jar. The cost of the calamansi peel powder was Php. 80.17 for 117ml of flavoring and Php. 68.31 for 77g of seasoning.
