Packaging concept | Liking – Packaging condition | Liking – Blind and Informed conditions |
---|---|---|
Blind condition | N/A | 72.3 ± 19.20a (blind) |
Bold | 57.6 ± 23.71a,A | 55.6 ± 20.02b,A (informed) |
Fun | 54.6 ± 26.09a,A | 54.5 ± 22.69b,A (informed) |
Everyday | 56.5 ± 21.78a,A | 56.9 ± 22.03b,A (informed) |
Special | 56.5 ± 24.84a,B | 71.3 ± 16.72a,A (informed) |

Premium | 62.7 ± 20.74a,A | 55.7 ± 24.56b,A (informed) |
a, b Means with different superscripts in each column indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) by the Tukey's Studentized Range test. A, B Means with different superscripts in each row indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) by t-test. N/A refers to Non-Applicable since there was no packaging involved in the blind condition, and the liking scores were for the taste.
