Aronia is a superberry that contains antioxidants. Due to its nutritional value, it has received much attention and has been widely researched. In this study, the proportion of aronia powder applied to spelt wheat flour was measured with the pH ratio of the additive and respondents' preference was examined for the preferred addition to the additive population. As a result of the acidity measurement, the pH value tended to decrease as the amount of aronia powder was increased. As for the fermentation expansion rate, the volume of the dough added with aronia powder was measured to be slightly smaller than that without addition of aronia powder. Preference of breads with aronia powder added showed higher preference when 6% was added compared to when 3% of aronia powder was added. As a result of preference survey of breads containing aronia powder, the most preference was given to taste when 3% of aronia powder was added. Color, fragrance, and overall acceptance were the most preferred when 6% of aronia powder was added. Based on these results, the optimal mixing ratio of aronia powder to spelt flour bread was selected to be 6% of aronia powder.
