Statement of the Problem

This study aims to use

Kamias not only in
flavoring or souring
dishes like Sinigang and
Paksiw but to develop a
new product that is
uncommon.
 Objectives:
A. To determine if the ripeness of Kamias fruit
has an effect on the sweetness of the jam filling.

B. To identify the best proportion of Kamias and

sugar that will produce the must preferred
donut sample of the respondents.

C. To find out the nutritive value of the best

proportion Kamias jam-filled donut.

Kamias, also known as bilimbi, is gaining recognition in many
countries for its nutritional and medicinal value. Its sour flavor makes
it a versatile ingredient in food preparation and provides significant
nutrient content, including vitamins B and C, calcium, phosphorus,
iron, and fiber. Kamias is also known for its medicinal properties, with
alternative medicine practitioners using it to treat various ailments,
including inflammation and fevers. Ascorbic acid, a form of vitamin C,
is a natural immune booster and helps build a protective shield against
bacteria and free radicals.

Kamias is also beneficial for digestion, as it contains enough dietary

fiber to support daily needs. As you age, bones and teeth become
weaker and less dense, and potassium supplements can help. Kamias is
the most prominent nutrient in kamias, supporting your entire skeletal
 Kamias is also beneficial for weight loss, as it has very few calories
and can be added to drinks and dishes without increasing the calorie
count. Its tart taste makes it a great ingredient for sauces and
condiments, and foods with vitamin B have been shown to positively
affect metabolic rate.

Kamias is often used in cooking, with its sour taste making it a

versatile ingredient in both light and fruity, and hearty, savory
recipes.

Uses of Belimbing(Camias)

The Malays make a concoction of the leaves along with the fruit which is
believed to treat syphilis. In traditional Malay medicine, the fruit juice is
also used to treat pimples, hypertension, diabetes and dizziness. The juice is
also used as eye drops and is considered a “magic cure” for certain eye
problems. The leaves are heated and applied to treat itchiness. An infusion
of the leaves is consumed as a protective measure after childbirth. The
leaves, fruits and flowers are boiled together and drunk to cure a cough.
The flowers are used to treat toothaches. Indonesians use the leaves to
treat a range of ailments including boils, rheumatism, mumps, pimples,
diabetes, whooping cough and fever. The fruit is used to add flavour to nasi
dagang.The Javanese make a preparation called rujak mricha to induce
perspiration, using the fruit and pepper. Traditionally, the fruit is useful in
treating piles and scurvy. In the Philippines, the juice of the fruit is used in
treating fever. In Indonesia and the Philippines, a leaf decoction is used to
stop internal bleeding and treat rectal inflammation.

Acceptability of Bilimbi (Averrhoa Bilimbi) Candy
The study has been conducted to determine the
acceptability of Bilimbi Candy. The product testing was
participated by 120 respondents. The benchmark test was
evaluated by the researchers themselves together with 29
students of Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant
Management and 10 faculty members. After the benchmark
test, a pilot test was conducted to 40 students from the
College of Business Management and Accountancy. After
administering the pilot test, the researcherss conducted the
final test which was then participated by 40 respondents of
Eastern Samar State University Guiuan Campus.
 These respondents was composed of students and instructors
who evaluated the characteristics of Bilimbi Candy in terms of
taste, aroma, color, texture, appearance and general acceptability
through the use of score cards. The result of the study revealed
that the quality of the product was interpreted as highly
acceptable in all 3 trials. Based on the findings of the study, the
Bilimbi fruit, locally known in the Philippines as kamias in
Tagalog/Filipino (National Language of the Philippines) and Iba in
Waray–waray (Local dialect of Guiuan, Eastern Samar) is good to be
used as flavoring for candy. The result of the study highly
recommends that the local street vendors and candy
manufacturers may add bilimbi fruit as one of the flavors for their
products.

Kamias Brownies: Its Acceptability

Researchers have developed a new brownie recipe using Averrhoa

bilimbi (kamias), a citrus fruit rich in vitamins and minerals. The recipe
uses white chocolate instead of dark chocolate to achieve a balanced
flavor. The study aimed to determine the acceptability of the brownies
among Grade 12 students and teachers from Home EconomicsStrand
using an experimental research design. The results showed that the
students and teachers found the brownies acceptable, with a composite
weighted mean of 4.10 and 4.17 respectively. The study suggests that
the product should be continuously improved to maintain quality and
compete with other products, ensuring high marketability.

METHODS OF MAKING FRIED DONUT:
Ingredients:

Neutral high smoke point oil, for deep frying (e.g., canola)
250g all purpose flour (2 cups), plus more for dusting
1g (½ teaspoon) ground nutmeg/cinnamon(optional)
4g salt (¾ teaspoon)
9g baking powder (2 teaspoons)
45g melted butter (3 tablespoons), cooled slightly
100g sugar (½ cup)
50g egg (1 large) at room temperature
120g plain unstrained yogurt (½ cup) at room temperature
Powdered sugar (100% optional)
PROCEDURE OF MAKING FRIED DONUT:
1.Set up a safe fry station on
your stove or a dedicated
deep-fryer. Make sure it
cannot be knocked over. Set
over medium-low heat so it
can heat gradually while you
prep the donuts, and set up
a deep fry thermometer.
Keep a close eye on it, and
aim for it to reach 350°F
[180°C] by the time you’re
ready to fry. If it heats too
quickly, reduce the heat to
low or turn off for a few
moments until you’re ready.
2.In a medium mixing bowl,
combine the flour,
nutmeg(OPTIONAL), salt,
and baking powder. Whisk
or sift together until
completely lump free.
In a separate mixing bowl,
combine the melted butter,
sugar, egg, and yogurt.
Whisk together until
completely smooth.
Scrape the wet ingredients
into the dry ingredients,
then mix together just until
combined (do not overmix).
