Abstract
This research aimed to develop a snack bar enriched with dried Thai river sprat (SB-TRS). Surveying the consumers' attitudes toward the product to develop the SB-TRS using a commercial cereal bar as a prototype was conducted. Then, the prototype product recipe, formulation development, consumer testing, and assessment of the product's quality were studied. The results of the attitude survey found that 90 % of consumers were interested in SB-TRS products, and 51 % wanted to supplement with dried Thai river sprat. The recipe for producing SB-TRS comprises the following ingredients by weight: fried dried Thai river sprat (20 %), puffed sticky rice (16 %), honey (19 %), glucose syrup (10 %), peeled pumpkin seeds (13 %), white sesame (13 %), and black sesame (9 %). The overall liking score was moderate (7.57 points). A remarkable 93% of consumers decided to purchase it, and 94 % accepted the product. The SB-TRS includes 1.20 % moisture, 21.61 % proteins, 30.49 % total lipids, 2.92 % ash, and 41.75 % carbs. Hardness, lightness (L*), redness (a*), yellowness (b*), and water activity of SB-TRS were 41.02 N, 58.38, 0.71, 13.63, and 0.39, respectively. The SB-TRS showed a total plate count of less than 25 CFU/g and no detection of yeast and mold in the product. The nutritional value per serving (23 grams) was found to provide 110 kcal of energy, 5 g of fat, 20 mg of cholesterol, 5 g of protein, 11 g of carbohydrates, 20 mg of sodium, 0.04 mg of vitamin B1, 0.77 mg of iron, and 105.91 mg of calcium. Therefore, the SB-TRS product is suitable for people who want convenience in consumption and help in adding calcium to the body.
