It was also observed that as the orange rind. Increased, there was decrease in carbohydrate, protein, ash, moisture acidity, antioxidant activity, and crude fiber content of khoa burfi orange rind and decrease in fat and total solid content. It was also observed that the overall acceptability score for treatment T0, T1, T2 and T3 was 7.886, 7.794, 8.008 and 7.834, respectively. The cost of control burfi was found to be highest for T3 as Rs.548.5 per kg. The lowest cost was recorded for treatment T0 as Rs.424.3 per kg.
