Aims: To produce juice and concentrate from Cashew Apple fruit (Anacardium occidental) and chemically evaluate the products, examine the Proximate analysis, physiochemical, mineral and vitamin of the products to evaluate the sensory properties of the products.

Study Design: Matured and ripe fruits were proceed into juice and then, concentraate products were analyzed for physicochemical, proximate and micronutrient compulsions. Shelf life of the products was evaluated. All experiments were replicated three and data subjected to descriptive statistics.

Place and Duration of study: Department of food, Nutrition and Home Sciences, Prince Abu-Bakr Aude University, Anyigba, Kogi State, Nigeria, between 01|01|2022 and 25|08|2023.

Methodology: cashew apple fruits were harvested and processed into fruit juice and then fruit concentrate by evaporation of water. Physiochemical and proximate compositions were determined using stadard methods Mineral and Vitamin C analyses were done by done by suitable Spectroscopy methods while HPLC was used to determine B vitamins. Changes in physiochemical properties were studied to determine shelf life. Data were subjected to statistical analyses.

Results: Neon values of physiochemical parameter of juice were pH,4.39, TA, 0.24, SG, 1.352, 0Brix, 10.50, SG of concentrate 1403 and 0Brix of concentrate 45.0 differed significantly (P= 0.5) from that of the juice. Proximate analysis showed a high moisture and protein concentrations (relative to other fruits) in cashew apple fruits juice. Concentrate was significantly (P= 05) lower in moisture but higher in protein content. Fruit juice contained micronutrients; Ca, 466.25, Fe 7.856, Mg, 223.25, Na, 26.50, P, 93.38, K, 60.50, Zn 0.55 and Vitamin C 208.60. Concentrations of these substances was signicatiy different (P=, 0.5) higher in the fruit concentrate. Phytochemical analyses in cashew apple fruit juice

 Were, Saponin 0.69, Tannins 1.38, Oxilate 0.08, Phytate 0.19.showed lower content in fruit juice but higher in the concentrate, all were significantly different. (p=0.05).

Conclusion: Cashew apple fruits juice and concentrate are rich in many macronutrients, especially protein, Ca, Fe, K, P, Zn, Vitamin C and phytochemicals such as Sapping, Tannins, Oxalate and Phytate.
