The study uses a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments and four repetitions. The data were processed using Annova test with which  if any influence is found then DNMRT test is taken at 5% level. The treatment of formulation applied on tapioca cookies SK1: Sago starch 90% with coconut flour 10%, SK2: sago starch 80% with coconut flour 20%, SK3: sago starch 70% with coconut flour 30%, SK4: sago starch 60% with coconut flour 40%, SK5: sago starch 50% with coconut flour 50%. The results showed that the addition of sago starch and coconut flour has significant effect (P <0.05) on water content, protein content of organoleptic testing, texture, flavors, aroma and hedonic. But it has no significant effect (P> 0.05) on ash content. Thus, it can be concluded that the best quality of tapioca cookiesis obtained from the formulations of 70% sago starch and 30% coconut flour (SK2), which have met the standard of cookies in Indonesia SNI (01-2973-1992).
