The khoa roll samples were prepared by using of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 per cent cocoa powder and @ 22% sugar. On the basis of sensory evaluation, without addition of cocoa powder (T0), addition of 2.0% cocoa powder (T1), 2.5% cocoa powder (T2) and 3.0% cocoa powder (T3) and 22% sugar level were selected for experimental trials. The experimental samples were evaluated for sensory,chemical and microbiological qualities. Experimental data was analyzed using standard method. The sensory attributes i.e. colour and appearance, body and textureflavour and overall acceptability of the khoa roll samples significantly differed (P less than 0.05) due to addition of cocoa powder. The sensory scores for colour and appearance, body and texture, flavour and overall acceptability of the product ranged from 7.58 to 8.06, 7.60 to 8.06, 7.60 to 8.20 and 7.60 to 8.20. There was significant differences (P less than 0.05) with respect to fat, protein, lactose, total solids, titratable acidity and pH of khoa roll samples due to addition of cocoa powder. The mean fat, protein, lactose, total solids, titratable acidity and pH value ranged from 21.4 to 21.84 %, 17.31 to 18.74 %, 23.43 to 23.48 %, 67.27 to 69.63, 0.62 to 0.68 % LA and 6.18 to 6.21, respectively. The SPC and YMC count ranged from 5.4 x 102cfu/g (T0) to 8.2 x 102cfu/g (T3), 2.2 x 102cfu/g (T0) to 10.6 x 102cfu/g (T3), respectively. On the basis of results of sensory quality the better quality khoa roll can be prepared by blend of 2.5 per cent cocoa powder and 22 % sugar in khoa.

A chocolate-flavored dairy drink sweetened with date puree was prepared by using equal parts each of sweet whey and whole milk. The blend was combined with 1.50% cocoa powder, 6% sugar (60% from date puree and 40% from table sugar), 0.05% stabilizer and 0.01% vanilla. The drink was compared with a control prepared with the same formulation except table sugar was used as a sweetener. Both products were heated to 60°C, mixed in a Waring Blender for 2 min, pasteurized at 85°C for 30 min and cooled to 4°C. Sedimentation, pH, acidity and acceptability tests were determined. The chocolate-flavored drink prepared with sweet whey-milk blend and partially sweetened with date puree appeared to be stable and highly acceptable. Chemical and physical properties of the finished product were within normal ranges.
