Brief Description

Description :

Banana is one of the largest produced fruit in the country, the fruit is mainly consumed as fresh and is also processed into pulp. Banana is a good source of carbohydrates, carotenoids, soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. Banana pulp extracted from mature ripe banana can be used for the manufacture of banana bar. Banana bar is a good source of energy and micro nutrients. The excess production of banana results in drop in prices and difficulty in marketing, hence there is a need for development of value added product from banana. Banana bar is highly acceptable with chewy texture, color and overall quality
