Abstract: 

Sweet is the first taste humans prefer from birth. Irrespective of all ages or diseases most people have the liking of something sweet. A high protein, low fat frozen dessert was made with the intention of catering to the sweet tooth of gym goers. The product was made high in protein by using Whey Protein Concentrate (80%). To cater to the choices of gym goers additional sweeteners were added to it as well. Stabilizers and emulsifier help in increasing the quality of the product to which they are added and they were thus used in the development of the product as well. The finished product had high protein content with a comparatively low fat content than other products in this segment. The frozen dessert was formulated keeping in mind the needs of gym goers or for those individuals who undergo resistance training exercises. Previous studies have showed that how Whey Protein helped in Muscle  Hypertrophy. The product was kept low in fat by using skim milk along with addition skim milk powder to enhance the organoleptic quality of the finished product by imparting a “creamy” mouth -feel to it. The final product was chosen through a 9-Point Hedonic Scale and then it was further tested for a series of
chemical parameters which measured the macro nutrient content along with some other parameters. The protein is to fat ratio was maintained high. The product thus formed can be further refined upon before finally being mass produced to cater to the general masses who find the need for it.
