This study aims was to determine the effect of the amount of milkfish bone flour addition for physical properties, chemical properties and preference level of panelists to bone crackers milkfish.The design of research used CRD (completely randomized design) with the addition of four treatment concentration of milkfish bone (K0 = addition of 0% milkfish bone flour, K1 = addition of 10% milkfish bone flour, K2 = addition of 15% milkfish bone flour and K3 = addition of 20% milkfish bone flour).
