ABSTRACT
The aim of this work was to
produce and evaluate jam using African bush mango (Irvingia gabonensis) and
pineapple (Ananas comosus) in different substitutes (100% bush mango, 70:30,
60:40, 50:50 and 100% pineapple) and to determine their suitability in jam
production. The jam samples were analyzed for their proximate composition,
mineral composition, vitamin composition, anti-nutrient composition,
phytochemical composition and sensory evaluation. The result of the proximate
analysis of the jam samples showed that moisture content ranged from 32.1 1 to
65.23%, Dry matter ranged from 34.77 to 67.90%, crude protein of the, jam
samples ranged from 2.07 to 3.44%, The crude fat of the jams ranged from 0.6 to
1 .02%, The crude fiber of the jams ranged from 0.03 to 0.17%, The ash content
value of the jam ranged from 2.01 to 3.99%, The carbohydrate content of the jam
ranged between 27.75 and 61.18% and Energy content ranged between 377.78 and
383.13kca1. There was significant difference (p<0.05) among the samples. The result of the mineral composition showed that the calcium content of the jam ranged from 1.35 to 4.40mg/100g, the potassium value ranged from 16.50 to 21.00mg/100g, Sodium content of the jam samples ranged between 0.89 and 1.23mg/100g, the phosphorus value ranged from 12.10 to 17.75mg/100g. There was significant difference (p>
