Purpose of the Product and Innovation

Many children like to eat yema so the idea of making yema with squash would be

attractive among children. The amount of beta carotene varies with the color intensity of a

squash flesh. Furthermore, it can also control the growth of cancer cells. This statement became

the bases for this study to create a yema candy with squash as it gives nutrients in our body,
essential for good skin and clear vision. And it is also good for children who don’t eat

vegetables because it tastes good and looks appealing to their eyes.

State the Advantages and the Disadvantages of the New Product

Squash Yema is much healthier than conventional yema since it contains veggies. By

forcing people to consume veggies in the shape of a sweet dessert that they have always loved,

without really showing them any vegetables, squash yema helps people who loathe squash.

Squash yema is another option for health-conscious people who are reluctant to consume sweets

or seek for health advantages. When compared to a typical yema, it has fewer calories and more

nutrients. Yema, on the other hand, can be compared to candy, and we all know that sugar can

harm teeth if it is consumed carelessly. Sugary foods like candy and desserts raise insulin levels,

which raises your risk of diabetes. Consuming candy and other sugary foods as part of a diet

increases the amount of empty calories you consume each day, which is a surefire way to gain

too much weight and become obese. But because the squash balances the sugar and nutrients in

this type of yema, it has less sugar. So, there is no need for concern. In general, it's critical to

innovate and create new goods in a way that seeks to address issues facing clients, customers,

businesses, or society at large.
