  A STUDY OF A GALACTOGOUGE A STUDY OF A GALACTOGOUGE AND PROTEIN RICH – AND PROTEIN RICH – MULTIGRAIN LADOOMULTIGRAIN LADOO

  

Ladoo is a ball shaped popular sweet in Indian subcontinent.

It is made with different kinds of flour and sugar with other

ingredient .

It is often served in festivals and occasions.

Its made up of different flours and functional food ingredient ‘Dink’ which is a galactogouge.

provides high amounts of Biological Protein.

Adequate amount of fiber.

•To standardize an innovative nutritious product for consumer acceptance.•To understand every step of entrepreneurship.•To study the shelf life of the product using sensory evaluation.•To design a nutrition label.•To make a cost effective product by better budgeting.•To select a suitable packaging material.•To market the product in an effective way..

Fig. No.1:

From Fig.No.1 It can be observed that texture and aroma of multi grain ladoo scored very good ,Color and taste scored good. The Overall acceptability was very good .

Its a thermoplastic polymer.

Used in applications -packaging & labeling,

textiles, stationary and reusable containers.

It is normally tough and flexible, often

opaque.

It has a good resistance to sunlight, air,

relative humidity.

During Processing of polymer, Antioxidants

are added to avoid degradation.

It is cost-effective and as resistant to other

sources. 

Polypropylene

A marketing tool for a product.

To provide a consumer the correct Information.

To make it easy for consumer to choose a better

product.

Budgeting was done for 55 packets each containing 50gm of

“Multigrain Ladoo”

Including cost of Ingredients, Packaging material, label, Gas,

Electricity, Labour cost.

Total cost for production of Multigrain Ladoo was Rs.752/-

Total gain was Rs.1000/- out of which profit was Rs.248 /-.

As the ingredients were purchased at wholesale rates profit was

more.

Profit per packet – Rs.4.96.

From the above Fig No.2: It can be observed that colour and texture remained constant for all the 4 weeks. There is a slight decline in taste and aroma Overall it remained good.

Fig.No.2:

Microbial testing was done to study the shelf life.

Multigrain Ladoo as the food is subjected to many changes

over

its lifespan.

Microbial testing was done in the second week.

Dilution No. of Colonies

10-1 3-4

10-2 1-2

Method used for microbial testing - Pour Plating method.

Multigrain Ladoo was diluted twice & mixed with liquefied Nutrient

Agar. Results obtained after Microbial Testing:

From the above Table : It was found that the numbers of colonies formed were in acceptable range & thus the product was safe for consumption.

Multigrain ladoo is a product providing varied variety of nutrients and can be recommended for all age groups as it has good Biological value Proteins. It has a shelf life of ten days as microbial analysis proved that it is safe for consumption. The shelf life could be improved with use of less amount of fat.
