In terms of the shelf life during week 0 2 4 and 6 it was found through the color space of L* and a* values that the colors had gotten darker as time progressed while b* value revealed no change. The water activity value (aw) also remained unchanged upon the extended shelf life which increases the presented color properties and moisture content. The texture had become tougher. Less than 10 colonies of microorganisms were found with less than 10 colonies of yeast and mold found during week 0 week 2 and week 4.
