Sensory evaluation of cookies

Key words:   Randomized blocks.

Description

Ten different chill or freezer storage treatments were tested on a type of cookies, and after storage the cookies were evaluated by a sensory panel composed of 13 assessors. Each assessor tasted the cookies in randomized order, and tasted each type twice. At each test the assessor gave a score for each of the properties: colour, consistency, taste, quality (combined). The score was an integer between 1 and 11 with 11 as the best. One assessor did not give any score for quality.
