Organoleptic Evaluation of Beetischolar_main Juice as Natural Color for Strawberry Flavor Ice Cream
Betalains are nitrogen - containing plant pigments whose colors range from red - violet beta cyanins to yellow betaxanthins. They are used as color ants dairy products, meat and frozen desserts. An investigation was carried out to find the acceptable level of beetischolar_main juice as a natural coloring agent for strawberry flavour ice cream and assess the sensor y scored of the resultant product. Beetischolar_main juice was incorporated at different level in strawberry flavor ice cream. Prepared ice cream was subjected to sensory analysis and found out the optimum level of inclusion of beetischolar_main juice in the ice cream prepa ration.
