Abstract

This study aims to explore the different characteristics of incorporating chia seed and honey instead of conventional pectin and sugar in pineapple jam preparation. Three different combinations of chia seed and honey were implemented to develop pineapple jam formulations, and then the characteristics were analyzed. The results showed noteworthy changes in the composition, texture, physicochemical, and color characteristics of the jam based on chia seed and honey content, but consumers preferred the commercial jam. Overall, this investigation brings attention to the potential advantages of applying chia seed powder and honey to pineapple jam, providing insights into its nutritional and sensory implications.
