A method is provided for complexing low molecular weight saccharides with an inorganic anioncation complex so that the metallic cation of said complex causes the aggregation of the saccharides to form a complex. The complex is separated via spray drying with the resultant complex displaying a resistance to humidity and an increased flowability.

Method and manufacture for easily spray-driable low molecular weight

Fresh citrus pulp is water washed and/or combined with an inorganic basic material such as calcium oxide in order to raise the pH of the pulp material to about 4.0 or above. The pH-adjusted pulp is then frozen and freeze-dried resulting in a dry pulp material which has good wetting and dispersion characteristics and a natural appearance in aqueous medium.
