The research was conducted to determine with the title “Effect of Different Levels of Tapioca (Manihot esculenta) as a Fat Replacer in low Fat Probiotic Ice Cream” to develop suitable technology for the preparation of fat replacer in low fat probiotic ice cream, to access the feasibility of using four levels (5, 10, 15 and 20%) of tapioca (Maniihot esculenta) with 1, 2 and 3% of L. casei. Total 12 treatment combination was used in this study as T1L1 (5% Tapioca + 1% L. casei), T1L2 (5% Tapioca + 2%L. casei), T1L3 (5% Tapioca + 3% L. casei), T2L1 (10% Tapioca + 1% L. casei), T2L2 (10% Tapioca + 2% L. casei), T2L3 (10% Tapioca + 3% L. casei), T3L1(15% Tapioca + 1% L. casei), T3L2 (15% Tapioca + 2% L. casei), T3L3 (15% Tapioca + 3% L. casei), T4L1 (20% Tapioca + 1% L. casei), T4L2 (20% Tapioca + 2% L. casei) and T4L3 (20% Tapioca + 3% L. casei)and all were replicated 4 times. The highest average value of carbohydrate content was obtained in the treatment T4L1 20% (31.82). The highest average value of protein and fat content was obtained in the treatment T1L1 (4.60 and 2.38). The highest average value of ash content was obtained in the treatment T1L1 (0.98). The highest average value of total solid content was obtained in the treatment T4L1 (38.82). The highest average value of moisture content was obtained in the treatment T1L2 (67.65).The highest average value of acidity content was obtained in the treatment T4L3 (0.32). The highest average value of standard plate count was obtained in the treatment T3L3 (5.88). The highest average value of yeast and mould score content was obtained in the treatment T4L3 (28.00). Coliform count in all the sample was found to be nil.
