Popis: Fruit sugars are gaining attention for their nutraceutical benefits. High sugar in ripe and over-ripe bananas makes them difficult for convective drying. In this study, red banana (RB) pulp was added with different gum derivatives as foaming agent (FA) (4 % w/w) viz., acacia gum(GA), carrageenan (CG) and gelatine(GE). Maltodextrin and carboxymethyl-cellulose were added as foam-stabilizers (FS). FA addition resulted in low density foam (RBGE-50 % reduction) with improved foam stability (RBGA-94.42 %). Powders were low in hygroscopicity (RBGA-18.62 g 100 g
