In final product optimum pH value for jelly is 3.2. A good product is clear and firm. It should taste fresh and fruity. It is used to treat various diseases. In the present study attaint was made for development of beet root jelly and sensory attributes of the jelly prepared from beetroot, sugar, citric acid, pectin, was evaluated.
