Adviser: Prof. Fe Dimero<br/>This study entitled -'Preservation and Storage Life of Pitted Rambutan" vv•as conducted last August 2001 at the Food Processing Center of Cavile State University.<br/>This study aimed to determine the possibility of making preserved pitted rambutan, to evaluate the sensory properties of each in terms of colors odor, flavor, general acceptability, and mouth reel, to identify the most acceptable method, and to determine the economic feasibility of the preserved pitted rambutan.<br/>Five treatments were used in this studv namely: TO- (rambutan and pure sugar), Tl- (rambutan and I tsp. sodium benzoate), T2- (rambutan. t tsp. sodium benzoate and I tsp. citric acid), T3- (rambutan. 1 tsp. sodium benzoate and I tsp. sodium metabisulfide), and T4- (rambutan, t tsp. citric acid and I tsp. sodium melabisulfide). Each treatment was evaluated in terms of flavor; texture, mouthfeel, and general acceptability. Based on the findings of the study* Treatment 2 which is composed of I tsp. sodium benzoate and I tsp. citric acid in terms of flavor x\Åth the life span oC4 weeks was the most acceptable.Treatment I which is composed of I tsp sodium benzoate in terms or flavor, texture, color, and mouthfeel with the life span of 4 weeks was the most acceptable. Treatment 2 which is composed of I tsp. sodium benzoate and I tsp. citric acid in terms of general acceptability with the life span of 6 weeks was the most acceptable<br/>
