All of the result of sensory attributes such as appearance, texture, taste and aroma which were evaluated by respondents showed the same results. The sensory characteristics discussed the influence of aroma, appearance, taste, and texture on food acceptability. The overall preference of this products is acceptable but in the moderate level. The kaduk pesto have a potential to improve in term of the sensory evaluation and might be able to commercialize to the public.
