The aim of the study was to evaluate a suitable combination of guava pulp, Apple pulp and sucrose solution for the preparation of guava and apple blend leather, stored at ambient temperature. The treatments were T0, T1 and T2. The samples were wrapped in the aluminum foil and evaluation was carried out for total period of 90 days. Physiochemical analysis, acidity, pH, brix0 and sensory characteristics of color, taste, texture and overall acceptability (using Larmond scale) were evaluated at 15 days interval. The TSS of guava and apple blend pulp was 8 brix0 when sucrose solution was added in different ratio, Then TSS of guava and apple blend leather was increased from 56.53g to 58.37a during storage. Maximum increased was observed T1 (20a%), while lowest value was observed in followed by T0 (13.93f%). The pH of guava and apple blend pulp was 4, then the pH of guava and apple blend leather was decreased from 3.86g to 3.68a for the period of storage. Maximum reduced was perceived in T1 (5.03c%), in compare minimum fall was observed in T0 (4.13f%). The Titratable acidy of guava and apple blend leather was increased from 1.27g to 1.46a for the period of storage. Supreme increased was perceived in T0 (19.47%), while lowest raise was observed in T2 (15.38%). The storage intervals had effect on the mean scores for organolyptic assessment. Mean scores of juries for the color of guava and apple blend leather was reduced from 7.33g to 5.27a for the period of storage. Supreme decreased was perceived in T0 (41.67%), while lowest fall was observed in T2 (18.75%). Mean totals of juries for the taste of guava and apple blend leather was reduced from 6.83g to 4.80a for the period of storage. Maximum reduced was detected in T0 (44.4%), while lowest fall was observed in T2 (21.25%). Mean scores of judges for the texture of guava and apple blend leather was reduced from 700g to 5.07a for the period of storage. Maximum decreased was perceived in T0 (38%), while lowest fall was observed in T0 (18.75%). Mean scores of juries for the overall acceptability of guava and apple blend leather was reduced from 7.07g to 5.03a throughout the storage. Maximum decreased was perceived in T0 (42.31%), while lowest fall was observed in T2 (20%). Statistically result was showed that the treatment T2 was found most acceptable both Physiochemical and organoleptically.
