This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of sorghum flour (30 gr, 60 gr, 90 gr) and beetroot flour (5 gr, 10gr, 15 gr) to the characteristics of Flakes, Organoleptic parameters were analyzed statistically using the Fridmen test while to find out the best treatment in the test Organoleptic tests were carried out on the effectiveness index test, the experimental design used the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method with 2 factors and 3 repetitions. The best treatment is determined by the effectiveness index test with the calculation results show the best treatment is on S2B2 with a formulation of 60gr sorghum flour and 10gr beetroot flour
