Promotion of orange-fleshed sweet potato with high beta-carotene content would enhance the consumption of sweet potato as well as support the local-based food diversification. Deep-fried chips, jam, juice, and noodle are the products that commonly make from cereals and fruits other than tubers. Producing those products from sweet potato was aiming to study the suitability and acceptance concerning promoting their utilization and adoption once they are released as new varieties. Five orange-fleshed sweet potato genotypes, namely MSU 06071-82, MSU 06039-07, MSU 06042-18, MIS 0651-09, and Beta-2 were studied their suitability for making food products, such as deep-fried chips, jam, juice, and noodle-based on their physical, chemical and sensorial attributes. The results showed that MSU 06042-18 genotype with a relatively high beta-carotene content (5.425 μg/100 g wb) was suitable for the ingredient of deep-fried chips jam, juice, and noodle products, followed by MSU 05036-11 and Beta 2. In particular, MSU 06071-82 and MIS 0651-09 genotypes were suitable for juice ingredients based on the parameter evaluated. This information is essential in terms of enhancing the adoption of orange-fleshed sweet potato genotypes by farmers and their utilization by food processors.
