from (58,13 - 85,61%,); hygroscopicity ranged (6,93 - 8,86%); water content ranged from (3,57 -
6,47%). The highest favorite value of color on orange sweet potato flake with addition margarine
(5,42), while purple sweet potato flake with addition palm oil has the lowest favorite value (3,46). The
aroma value of orange and purple sweet potatoes flake with the addition coconut oil has the highest
(5,15) and (5,35) than palm oil and margarine. Preference taste of orange and purple sweet potatoes
flakes was the highest if additions of coconut oil, i.e. very like (score 5,12). Crispness preference was
preferred from orange sweet potato flake with coconut oil additions (4,96). Favorite taste was
