On the other hand, the cocoa industries in the country produce a high quantity of cocoa shells that are considered as agroindustrial waste, which come from the two main varieties of cocoa, Nacional Arriba and CCN51. That is why, as a product of the grinding of these husks, flour was obtained that was used for the production of breads and biscuits with different dosage percentages based on various bibliographical sources and the authors' own experiences. In the case of the breads, the dosage used was 10% and 20%, while for the cookies a dosage of 70% and 80% was applied. Both the breads and the cookies were evaluated fortheir sensorial quality, by means of untrained judges using a hedonic scale from 1 to 5. The results confirm a high sensory quality in the cookies compared with the sensory quality obtained in the breads. metadata El Salous, A y Pascual Barrera, Alina Eugenia mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, alina.pascual@unini.edu.mx (2018) Sensorial Quality ofBreads and Cookies Prepared with Flour from The Shells of Two Varieties of Cocoain Ecuador.
