This research is expected to provide benefits for farmers and processing industries, primarily engaged in the processing of vegetables and fruits, to support the development of agro-industries in rural areas. Making tomatoes dates begins with the sorting process, adding sugar to the ratio of tomatoes and sugar 2:1, then cooking on low heat and drying for 12 hours with observations every 3 hours. Tomato dates are divided into blanching and non-blanching tomatoes. It was concluded that blanching tomatoes is the best treatment with, water content of 13.8%, pH 5.32 and can maintaned total vitamin C of 60.25% during drying process.
