Taste of gummy bears

Hello Readers welcome back to my blog. 


Aim: To taste different lollies and determine if the colour of the lolly indicates these flavours and how much the sour taste masks are there.


Hypothesis:


I think that some flavours are going to be easy to identify.


Method:

1. Each person in the group will test two lollies.

2. Each tester will be blindfolded.

3.  Lolly will be placed on their tongue then chew.

4. Once a flavour has been determined it will be recorded in the chart below using a scale of 1-5 to determine how easy it is to identify the lolly flavour. 1 being easy and 5 being hard. You will need to complete all 3 columns on the chart.
