Spirulina (Arthrospira) is a microalga that has high protein content and is rich in minerals and vitamins; characteristics that make it a food additive for different population groups. Thepresent work was aimed to develop, characterise and evaluate the stability and acceptance of a meal replacement shake and a high-calorie food, both with Spirulina sp. LEB 18. The average carbohydrate and protein contents for high-calorie food supplement were 71% and 17%, respectively. The meal replacement shakes had 85% of carbohydrates and 19% of proteinon average. According to sensory test, the target group accepted both foods developed with Spirulina sp. LEB 18. The shelf life of the products with microalgal biomass was estimated at26 months for the high-calorie food supplement and 17 months for the meal replacement shake. Thus, the biomass of Spirulina sp. LEB 18 can be considered an interesting alternative for thenutritional intake.
