Abstract

Kalakand, a popular traditional milk sweet of Indian sub-continent, was packaged under air and modified atmospheric packaging (MAP) conditions (98 % N2, 98 % CO2 and 50 % N2: 50 % CO2). The samples were stored at 10, 25 and 37 °C and evaluated for various physico-chemical, microbial, textural and sensory changes, in order to establish the applicability of MAP for storage of Kalakand. It could be established that the MAP conditions of 50 % N2: 50 % CO2and storage at 10 °C, were the most suitable conditions for preserving the Kalakand for upto 60 days.
