The storage time was 60 days.  The samples were analyzed for their water content, vitamin C, total soluble solid, pH, capsaicin content and total microba every 15 days (0, 15, 30, 45, 60).  The results show that the type of plastic packaging significantly affected the quality of the chilli puree stored for 60 days.  The best treatment was found in chilli puree vacuumly packed in thick polypropylene and stored for 2 months.  The puree has the characteristic of 79,10% water content, 36 mg/100 gr of vitamin C and pH of 4,14.
