A method for the sensory evaluation tests of baby food formulas
Sensory analysis is as deteiled and specific as analytical chemistry. So before you go ahead with any research, you have to clarify the goals of your project. What is the purpose of the development? Do you want to make a modification of a product, which already exists or launch a new one? The effet of the modification should be noticeable (e.g. more intense apple taste), or not (e.g. fortification with a vitamin, without unpleasant taste). Performing sensory tests with very young children is difficult. I can attach only a picture, which was used with children between 4-6 years. They had to drop the ball into the plastic cup, which represented their opinion.

Sensory evaluation should be done by the experts in food Sci., and technology but the babies should have other test for their food called acceptability test in order to start to improve the taste such category.
