In indigenous medicine, this gel is used specifically to treat gastritis and also to give coolness to the body. This plant has expectorant properties, anti-infertility properties, ability to promote the production of sperms and breast milk and is used as a diuretic (Wijesinghe, 1994). Jelly is a product prepared from a suitable ingredient and practically free from suspended fruit particles; mixed with a carbohydrate sweetener and processed co a semi solid consistency (Ranganna, 1986). Four substances such as pectin, acid, sugar and water arc necessary for the preparation of jelly. In this research, a jelly product was developed using Kesi-pissan leaf extract and fruit pieces were incorporated to the jelly.en_US
