The effects of sweetener type, sweetener concentration, and fruit flavor on the sensory attributes of soy fortified yogurt were determined. Soy fortified dairy yogurts were made by the addition of soy protein concentrate (0, 2.5, 5%) to standard yogurt mixes prior to fermentation. Sweetener type (sucrose, fructose, sucrose/fructose) and sweetener concentration (6, 8, 10%) were incorporated into yogurts in a split plot experiment with soy concentration as a subplot factor. Flavor effects (plain, lemon, strawberry) were studied in a 3 × 3 factorial experiment (soy concentration × flavor). A trained descriptive panel (n=13) evaluated yogurts for seven flavor and aroma terms. Sweetener type had no effect on sensory properties with the exception of perceived sweetness. Soy flavors and astringency decreased with increasing sweetener concentration. Fruit flavors decreased soy aromas, soy flavors, and astringency in yogurts containing soy protein. These results indicate that sweetener concentration and fruit flavors play a crucial role in formulating yogurts fortified with soy protein.
