In this study, the effects of rose hip (Rosa L.) on the physical, chemical and sensory characteristics, antioxidant activity and mineral contents of ice cream were investigated. Four different proportions (0, 5%, 10% and 15%) of rose hip were used in ice cream production. The sample containing 15% rose hip had the highest antioxidant activity (DPPH and total phenolic content, 28.71 mg sample mg-1 DPPH and 1555 mg GAE g-1 extract, respectively) and vitamin C (246.50 mg 100 g-1 ) among all ice cream samples. The L* and White Index values of the samples decreased significantly with the increment of rose hip concentration while the a* and b* values increased. The calcium, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, manganese, iron and zinc values increased with the addition of rose hip. Sensory results showed that the ice cream sample containing 15% rose hip had lower score than the control sample in terms of color, appearance, gumming structure, flavor and general acceptability.
