Abstract

The study was conducted to produce cocoa wax foot and hand spa cream for the following questions: 1. Can cacao and bee wax be made into foot and hand spa cream? 2. What is the process of preparing cocoa and bee wax foot and hand spa cream? 3. Is cocoa and bee wax foot and hand spa cream acceptable in terms of a. texture b. color c. odor d. effectiveness? The respondents of the study were the twenty (20) faculties of Laguna State Polytechnic University, ten (10) from the College of Arts and Sciences, ten from the College of Nursing, and ten (10) students from the College of Arts and Sciences. The study used an experimental method of research to determine if cocoa and bee wax foot and hand cream are acceptable. A scorecard was used in evaluating the acceptability of cocoa and bee wax foot and hand spa cream by thirty (30) respondents. The data collected were subjected to various statistical treatments such as weighted mean and percentage. Seven or seventy (70) percent of the respondents rated the texture of cacao and bee wax foot and hand spa cream as “Very Good”. Five (5) or fifty (50) percent (%) of the respondents rated the odor of cacao and bee wax foot and hand spa cream as “Excellent”. Five or fifty (50%) percent of the respondents rated the color of cacao and bee wax foot and hand spa cream as “Very Good”. Seven (7) or seventy percent (70%) of the respondents rated the effectiveness of cacao and bee wax foot and hand spa cream as “Very Good”.
