The aim of this research is to determine the chemical and sensory characteristics of snack bar made from glutinous corn flour, hunkwe (which is green beans flour) and cashew nuts. The parameter observed was water, ash, protein, carbohydrate and lipid content, and also sensory analysis involved color, flavor, aroma and texture. This is a Completely Randomized Design with 3 different formulations of glutinous corn flour:hunkwe flour in grams; A (200:100), B (150:150) and C (100:200). The data was analyzed using Software SPSS for Analysis of Variance in 5% significance level.
