Abstract

This study examines the innovative application of banana peel flour as a partial substitute for wheat flour in brownie production, with a focus on its nutritional benefits and sensory impact. As banana peels are a commonly discarded agricultural by-product despite their rich composition of dietary fiber, antioxidants, and minerals, their transformation into flour presents a valuable approach to waste reduction and functional food development. The research involved formulating brownies with varying concentrations of banana peel flour at 10%, 25%, and 50%. Each formulation was evaluated based on proximate composition and sensory attributes, including color, aroma, taste, and texture. Results indicated that substitution levels of up to 25 percent improved nutritional value, particularly in terms of fiber and mineral content, without significantly compromising consumer acceptability. The 10 percent formulation achieved the highest scores across all sensory parameters, while the 50 percent formulation exhibited reduced palatability due to increased bitterness and changes in texture. These findings highlight the potential of banana peel flour as a sustainable and nutritious ingredient in baked products when used in optimal proportions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of viral marketing, live streaming, and electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) on purchasing decisions on live streaming-based e-commerce platforms. The study used a quantitative explanatory approach with a survey method of consumers who had made purchases through live streaming commerce. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the measurement model and structural model. The test results showed that all research indicators met the validity and reliability criteria. Empirical findings revealed that viral marketing and e-WOM had a positive and significant influence on purchasing decisions, while live streaming did not have a significant direct influence. Viral marketing acts as an initial trigger that increases consumer awareness and interest through social information dissemination. Meanwhile, e-WOM is the most dominant factor in influencing purchasing decisions because it functions as a form of social validation that can reduce risk perception and increase consumer trust. Live streaming plays a more active role as a means of consumer interaction and engagement that has an indirect impact on purchasing decisions, thus requiring the support of other factors such as trust and credible consumer reviews. In conclusion, an effective digital marketing strategy for live streaming commerce needs to focus on creating viral content and strengthening positive e-WOM, with live streaming being used as a supporting tool to increase engagement and overall marketing effectiveness.
