This study aimed to determine the effect of edible coatings based on whey protein isolate and essential oils (lemon and lemongrass) on the colour, hardness, polyphenols and flavonoids content, structure, and sensory attributes of fresh-cut pears during storage at 4 °C. The optical and barrier properties of the edible films were also determined. Analysed films showed good transparency (Lightness 86.6–95.0) and excellent oxygen and carbon dioxide permeability, which were reduced due to the presence of lemon and lemongrass essential oils. Pears were coated by immersion in a solution containing 8% of whey protein isolate and the addition of lemon oil at 1.0% or lemongrass essential oil at 0.5%. Coating caused a reduction in colour changes, loss in hardness, polyphenols and flavonoids. The study showed that the highest efficiency was demonstrated by the whey protein isolate coatings without the addition of essential oils by preserving the colour and firmness of fresh-cut pears. For these samples, the highest sensory acceptability was also achieved.
