Based on the graph, it can be seen that the higher 
the  substitution  concentration  of  fermented  corn 
flour, the lower the level of panelists preference for 
overall  cookies.  The  results  of  analysis  of  variance 
showed that the different formulations of fermented 
corn flour and wheat flour have a significantly affect 
on  the  panelist  assessment  of  the  overall  cookie 
produced. The significance of differences is shown in 
Table 3. 
The data in Table 3 showed that the substitution 
concentration  of  80%  fermented  corn  flour  (80:20) 
resulted  in  a  lower  panelists  assessment  and  were 
significantly different from other treatments. This is 
because the higher the  substitution concentration of 
fermented  corn  flour,  the  physical  test  value  of  the 
texture hardness of cookies decreases (the cookies is 
softer)  in  line  with  the  organoleptic  quality  of 
crispness hedonic decreases (not crispy). 
Thus,  the  panelists  evaluated  the  overall  dislike 
along with the increased concentration of fermented 
corn  flour  substitution.  The  result  of  ranking  test 
showed that the panelists liked the cookies with the 
formulation of fermented corn flour and wheat flour 
20:80). 
4  CONCLUSION 
From the results of the research it can be concluded 
that  different  formualtions  of  fermented  corn  flour 
and  wheat  flour  did  not  significantly  affect  on  the 
parameters of physical quality of texture (hardness), 
chemical  quality  (moisture,  ash,  protein,  fat, 
carbohydrate,  and  crude  fiber  content)  and  hedonic 
quality  (color,  aroma,  taste  and  crispness),  but 
significantly  affect  in  the  overall  liking  level 
parameter. 
Based  on  physical,  chemical  and  oragnoleptic 
tests,  the  formulation  of  fermented  corn  flour  and 
wheat  flour  (20:80)  is  a  formulation  that  can  be 
produce  quality  cookies  with  the  charachteristics: 
hardness value 3462,42 gF; moisture content 1,47%; 
ash content 2,43%; protein content 7,29%; fat content 
24,74%;  carbohydrate  content  64,08%;  crude  fiber 
content  1,34%.  Based  on  the  organoleptic  tests,  the 
color is yeloowish brown, the aroma and taste of corn 
is strong slightly and the texture is crispy.
