preliminary benchtesting analysis ofthe four starch-molded mango snack formulations was conducted focused on the characteristic of taste. From this bench testing and according to taste evaluation it was decided to eliminate formulation with 25:75 DAMC: DAMB ratio from the definitive sensory analysis. Sensory analysis was done on control, 75:25, and 50:50 DAMC: DAMB snack formulations. An untrained sen- sory panel consisting of 69 members from the scientific and administrative staff at WRRC-ARS-USDA in Albany CA, ranked the three starch-molded mango snack formulations from most to least preferred according to taste and ap- pearance. Starch-molded mango snack samples were cut in pieces of 2 cm.
