Description Fruit segments of (i) pineapple, (ii) papaya, and (iii) apple were osmo-air dehydrated by dipping in sugar syrup to reduce the wt. by 50% followed by drying in cross flow air drier (70 degree C) to reduce the moisture to 15%. Conditions like thickness of segments, Brix of the sugar syrup, time and temp. of soaking were standardized for (i)-(iii). Drying time needed was 7 h for (i), 9 h for (ii) and 5 h for (iii) when moisture content was 13.2, 14.0 and 8.9% resp. Changes in moisture, acidity and total sugars after osmosis and dehydration and proximate composition of osmo-air dehydrated slices of (i)-(iii) are given. In another experiment fruit pulp from (iii) was dried for 26 h in cross flow air drier (70 degree C) to convert it into a fruit bar and reduction in moisture content was noted every h. Fruit bars from 5 var. of (i) did not show much variation in quality. Drying of fruit pulp of (i) to convert into fruit bar did not change acidity and sugar.
