Control control point in the manufacture of jelly pineapple candy is the selection of raw materials, standard weighing material, processing temperature, and drying. The results obtained are gelatin is the best gelling agent in making pineapple jelly candy products.

The method used is quantitative qualitative descriptive where the results of the analysis obtained will be described. The aim is to determine the effect of gelling agent on jelly pineapple candy products, to determine the process of making jelly pineapple candy by applying the concept of quality control, and knowing the level of product preference and quality from organoleptic testing. food quality control is one way to get safe and healthy products according to panelists' requests. For biodegrability of FPKP, the affect of citric acid apply vice versa.In the process of processing jelly candy pineapple requires supervision related to food safety and quality assurance. The addition of citric acid can enhance the tensile strength of FPKP, up to 4,202 MPa for FPKP with CaCO3 filler and 4.032 MPa for FPKP with CMC filler.

The results was showed that the addition of citric acid affects the color of a PKP produced. Glycerol concentration was varied from 20% w/w to 60% w/w, while CaCO3 and CMC were added in a fixed amount. FPKP was made with banana peel starch (pati kulit pisang – PKP) as raw materials, with the addition of glycerol as a plasticizer, and both CaCO3 and CMC as filler, whereas the PKP was obtained by simple extraction methods with or without the addition of citric acid. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of citric acid on mechanical properties and capabilities degradation of starch biodegradable film made from this starch (film plastik pati kulit pisang – FPKP). Browning was prevented by the addition of citric acid during the process of starch extraction from banana peels. Starch was derived from banana peels would be rapidly changing color or browning. Banana peels can be used as raw material for biodegradable plastic film because the banana peels was consists of starch.
