India is considered to be the largest producer of the sapota in the world. This fruit is highly perishable, sensitive to cold storage and negligible scope for processing therefore, bulk of the produce is used for table purpose only causing huge post harvest losses. In these circumstances, it is essential to produce value added products from sapota. The experiment was conducted using different fruits, spices and herbs, sweetening agents and citric acid.
