The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of lotus leaf Dasik prepared by additions of lotus leaf powder at differing levels (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%). The proximate composition of the lotus leaf powder was 6.00% moisture, 19.56% crude protein, 0.78% crude fat, 64.7% carbohydrate, and 8.93% crude ash. As the lotus leaf powder level increased, the moisture content of the lotus leaf Dasik increased however, the L, a, and b values of the lotus leaf Dasik significantly decreased. According to the mechanical evaluation results, hardness increased as the level of lotus leaf powder increased, adhesiveness and springiness were not significantly different among the groups, and cohesiveness was evaluated as higher in the control group as compared to the lotus leaf groups. In the sensory evaluations, the 6% lotus leaf Dasik prepared with 188 g of flour, 12 g of lotus leaf powder, and 200 g of honey showed the highest preference scores and was therefore chosen as the optimal product.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of lotus leaf Dasik prepared with various sweeteners, including honey (HON), starch syrup (SS), isomaltooligosaccharide(IMOS), galactooligosaccharide (GOS), and fructooligosaccharide (FOS). The moisture contents of samples were highest in GOS. L-values were significantly higher in the HON group. Whereas a- and b-values were not significantly different among the groups. According to the results for mechanical characteristics, hardness was significantly lower in HON while cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness were highest in SS; however, adhesiveness and springiness were not significantly different among the groups. The sensory evaluation results showed that the lotus leaf Dasik containing FOS received the highest preference scores.
