pollution. In April - June 2018, the country produced 528.49 thousand tons of mango,
down 3.3 percent from 546.28 thousand tons produced in 2017. Mango when processed,
would produce products like mango puree, mango juice, dried mango and more. Mango
This is a shame because the mango peels offer a delightful array of nutrients and
health benefits. A mango peel contains many of the same nutrients as the meat and some
of them are even higher than the main fruit meat. Mango-shaped waste or by-products
contain high dietary fiber, minerals, vitamins and other natural chemicals that make a
significant contribution to good health. Peel contributes 15 to 20% of the fruit. As peel is
not used for any commercial purpose, it is discarded as waste and becomes a pollution
source. In 2013, 93 % of total production was used as net disposable foods, 1.1 % of the
More so, there were some benefits of mangoes one of this is its nutritional content

Currently, there is a large selection of different bread in stores today. Many of
them try to make the consumer feel that the food they buy is fresh, healthy and natural.
This is not always true, however, this explains, for example, time, expectations of
consumers and economic reasons. Since time is money, the industry wants to use as little
time as possible to produce the bread but to achieve the longest durability of the bread

The cupcake was regarded as one of the world's best and most popular bake
product and which considered also a dessert. It was then introduced in the 19th century in
the United States, and due to the amount of time it saved in the kitchen, it was
revolutionary. The name of the cupcake came from the two theories: the cakes were
originally cooked in cups and the other was measured from the ingredients used to make
the cupcakes.
This type of bake product is part of human life already. Before that, it is served
only on special occasions such as birthdays, weddings and holidays such as Christmas
and New Year. The reason it is served and associated due to its sweetness in good events

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most commonly traded tropical fruits
worldwide. It is an evergreen tree gown for its edible fruit in the Anacardiaceae family.
Mango fruit with uneven sides is roughly oval. The fruit is a drupe with outer stone flesh.
The flesh is soft and bright in yellow-orange color. Mangoes are juicy stone fruits of
genus Mangifera, made up of numerous tropical trees. Mostly cultivated for edible fruit.
Mango is native to the South Asian regions of Eastern India, Burma and the Andaman
The food and agriculture industry produce huge amount of waste worldwide,
where the economy is mainly based on agriculture and very intensive agricultural
fields. However, this waste, due to its organic properties, is rich in sugar which can be
easily digested by microorganisms, and thus turn it into a potential substance for use as a

fruits marketed in the world, producing more than 26 million tons in 2004 (FAOSTAT,
2004). This is naturally cultivated or grown in more than 90 countries throughout the
world (especially in the tropics and subtropics) and is known as the second largest
tropical fruit in the world (Joseph and Abolaji, 1997). Accunts were eaten by tissue for
33-85% of flesh fruit, and skin and kernel 7-24% and 9-40% respectively (Wu et al.,
1993). In fact, mango peel as a by-product of mango production can be a rich source of

described in the past however, defiviencies are currently not commercially available,
although mango processing releases a large amount of waste (20-25% of total fruit
weight) that contributes to contamination (Berardini et al., 2005). Most studies of the use
of mango pellets are related to their use as a source of pectin, which is considered a high-
quality fiber (Pedroza-Islas and Aguikar-Esperanza, 1994, Tandon and Garg, 1999).
Globally the mango industry is the 5th largest tropical fruit industry with the production
of over 34.3 million tons (FAO 2008 Statistics – check 2009 stats). Production is based
across approximately 100 countries in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, with
Asia the largest production region with 25,955×103 tons followed by Africa with

doubling of production over the past 18 years, a trend that is expected to continue with a
current expansion in Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, China West Africa, and Spain. Although
about 100 countries grow mangoes, about 80% of production comes from the top nine
the world production is traded internationally the rest is traded and consumed within the
countries of production. Many companies process mango into dried, purée, juice, nectar
and frozen products for local markets and exports. Several mango pure processors are in
the National Capital Region and in the surrounding provinces of Luzon such as Bulacan,
Pampanga, Laguna, and Cavite. Most dehydrated candied and pure mangoes processors
are in Cebu. Strategic Action Plan for Mango) Foreign markets Japan, Hong Kong,
Singapore, Canada, and the United States are the leading importers of fresh and
processed Philippine mangoes. Although export earnings from fresh mangoes account for
more than 50% of total exports, the revenue from processed mango products still
contributes significantly to the total earnings from mango exports. In 2005, the
Philippines exported P13,3 million meters of processed mango products, including dried,

quercetin and kaempferol which helps to slow down aging and prevent cancer. Study
shows that mango peels possess polyphenols in comparison to the flesh. The chemicals
found in mango peels help to lower the chances of cancer, cataracts, Alzheimer’s disease,
and Parkinson’s disease. Peel has antioxidants such as norathyriol, mangiferin, quercetin
and resveratrol which assist to counteract free radical damage, anti-aging activity and
prevents cancer. Being an antioxidant, Mangiferin eases inflammation and protects from
harmful UV rays of the sun. It also possesses phytonutrients. It is also a great source of
fiber which assists digestive health and also keeps regular bowel movements. Study
shows that Mango peel contains a compound which eliminates radicals that could cause
various health problems. It is beneficial for the human body. Consuming mango with peel
is a cure for constipation, dysentery, indigestion, and piles. In India, mango peel is boiled
with water and used as an aid for stomach mucous membrane inflammation problems.
Mango peel has high fiber content so is useful for digestive health.
Dietary fiber intake provides many health benefits. A generous intake of dietary
fiber reduces the risk for developing the following diseases: coronary heart disease,
increased consumption of dietary fiber improves serum lipid concentrations, lowers blood

Srivastava D. (2013), and her group investigated the effect of the incorporation of
fenugreek seed husk (FSH) into the muffins at different levels of 5, 10 and 15%. Muffins
have been prepared with FSH at various levels and the battery flow properties have been
investigated. Supplementation with FSH resulted in a softer crumb texture with reduced
hardness from 4.20 to 3.19 N. The addition of FSH to muffins was found to be accepted
by panelists with a better rating than the control. Based on sensory quality in muffins, the
optimal level of incorporation of FSH flour was found to be 10 percent and the use of
polysorbate 60 at 0.5 percent in these muffins further improved the overall quality
The difference of the study is that the present utilized mango peel powder as the
source of dietary fiber, while in the related study they utilize fenugreek plant husk to
determine the effect of ratio in muffin. The study was similar to the present study in
terms of the percentage that they used in incorporating and determining the enrichment of

accordance with the PDRI intake of dietary fiber it was stated that fibre is not very
recommended as dietary intake rather enough for the consumer to have adequate intake
There should be an adequate intake only for the fibre and not as compared with
any other micronutrients which is regarded as recommended intake (see Apendix M and
M.1) for USDA %DV and PDRI for the Philippine recommended dietary intake of fibre.
The excess consumption of fiber in food that is beyond the adequate intake might
have a negative effect on the consumer’s digestive tract in accordance with the article of
Medical News Today. Most common symptoms of eating too much fiber are: bloating,
gas feeling too full, stomach cramps, constipation or diarrhea and dehydration.

CHAPTER V
This chapter the summary of the research work undertaken, conclusions drawn
from the trial and error method of development, from the analysis of the data from the
effect of mango peel powder in the process and characteristic of cupcake, the conduct of
physical measurement such as to determine the effect of mango peel powder on the
cupcake. The sensory evaluations of treated cupcake as to describe the effect of mango
Summary
The study used experimental design in the effect of mango peel powder in the
process and characteristic of cupcakes which the trial and error method was used to
describe the formulation and process of the cupcake. The statement would enlighten the
reader for the brief discussion of the results and findings of the study.
During the trial and error, 5 semi-trained panels were the one who set the
parameter on how they were going to evaluate the sensory quality of cupcake with mango
peel powder. The 50 consumer type panelist evaluated the 40 students and 10 semi
trained panelist were asked to evaluate the samples one by one from the first coded
sample, then the panelist can ask for the second sample, then third to fourth sample, using
9- point HEDONIC SCALE for the product attribute liking. The characteristic analysis
was conducted by the researchers and nutritional analysis particularly the total dietary
fibre were done at the third parties service was availed to determine the nutritional profile
of the cupcake.

Results of statistical data analysis on consumer product testing, characteristic
1. The baker’s percentage was used to compute the formulation of the ingredients in
terms of flour percentage, from the control sample to 5% MPP, 10% MPP, and 15%
2. As observed, the 5% and the 10% ratio of mango peel powder does not affect the
height of the cupcake. While the cupcake with 15% mango peel powder influences
the height of the cupcake, as the percent of mango peel powder increases, the height
of cupcake decreases. In terms of weight, the result showed that all treatments with
different percent concentration such as 5%; 10%; and 15% including control or the
0% mpp, got a computed p-value that is greater than the 0.05 level of significance,
retaining the null hypothesis and implying that the weight and the mango peel percent
concentration of the cupcake does not have significant relationship. It simply means
that the increasement of mango peel powder ratio does not have significant effect on
3. Base on the statistical method applied on the sensory evaluation of all treatments in
treatments or simply, the appearance of the cupcake does not have an effect on its
10% and 15% has no significant relationship meaning. the color of the cupcake
terms of, all treatments there is significant positive moderate relationship between
the said treatments or simply, the percent concentration of mango has an effect on
43
its acceptability in terms of aroma. In terms of flavor there exists a significant
positive moderate relationship between the 5% concentration of mango peel and its
positive moderate relationship between the said treatments or simply, the percent
concentration of mango peel and the acceptability of the cupcake in terms of after
taste, meaning, the 10% concentration of mango has an effect on the acceptability
4. The result in dietary fiber content of the most acceptable cupcake with 10% mango
peel powder contains the 2.88% daily value (DV) showed to be significantly higher
Conclusion
Based on the findings stated above the researcher concluded the following:
different percent concentration of mango peel powder. It was noted that the batter
44
mixture becomes thicker and heavy and it has to be concluded that as the level of
2. As the percent concentration of mango peel powder increases the weight gets
mango peel powder and height of cupcake. Therefore, as the percent mango peel powder
3. In consumer product testing the most acceptable cupcake has 10% level of
mango peel powder. The taste was the most acceptable attribute for the treatment 2. Thus,
significant amount of mango peel powder generally affects some of sensory attributes.
4. As the result % dietary fibre content of the most acceptable cupcake was
2.88% which appeared to be higher than the control cupcake that has only 1.47% dietary
fibre content. Therefore, Ho was accepted because significant amount of mango peel
Recommendations
1. The future researchers may consider the use of different methods of drying so as to
assess some other underlying factors that can affect the process of making cupcake.
2. The study also recommends for microbiological quality and characteristics of the
3. The use of different varieties of mango peel may also be considered in studying the
peel that was generally nonedible part of the fruit and considered as a waste or by
product.
