On Thursday, May 19, 2022, the Practicum of Product Development and Process Technology of the Department of Food and Agricultural Products Technology UGM held a Virtual Food Exhibition from 13.30 – 17.10 WIB. The activity carried out through the Zoom Meeting was guided by Salsabila Ayu Syafiqa and Anang Wahif Fatkhurrochman as the host.
Virtual Food Exhibition is a series of activities in the Practicum of Product Development and Process Technology. In this practicum, students are formed into several groups, then each group is asked to make products that can be consumed and marketed at the exhibition. The products produced can be new products that have not been produced by other parties or are innovations from existing products. The products produced must also pay attention to their nutritional value so that they are suitable for consumption. This exhibition was attended by TPHP 2019 students as one of the requirements for completing assignment of the Practicum of Product Development and Process Technology.
In this Virtual Food Exhibition, students were divided into ten groups with ten different products, including The Weirdoughs; Taroats; CripsJoy; Good Bar; Luegi; Chobain; Cerefucale; Fischa; Ichips; and Foogie. These products are sold from Rp10,000 to Rp30,000. There is also a booklet about these products which can be accessed at: https://bit.ly/BookletFoodExhibition2022
As the groups presented their products, each group also presented various games with product prizes for the winners. The enthusiasm of the Virtual Food Exhibition participants was very high, so many were scrambling to get the product prizes.
