Tapioca starches

High performance, clean taste and texture    

Tapioca starches provide consumers with the food and beverage benefits they demand, minus the qualities they don’t. Extracted from the roots of the cassava plant — and a global food staple — Ingredion’s tapioca starches can meet kosher, halal and vegan requirements and are non-GMO, grain- and gluten-free. What’s more, the neutral flavor profile and unique thickening properties of our high-performing tapioca texturizers are sure to deliver a sensory experience your customers will love.  

Our cost-effective, easy-to-use tapioca starches can be combined with other starches, giving you options to achieve new functionalities you never thought possible. Whether you’re developing a crunchier snack cracker or reformulating a yoghurt for a truer dairy flavor, our tapioca starches can help you create an unforgettable eating or drinking experience your customers will be able to see, taste and feel.

Our teams of technical and market experts are here to help. When you work with Ingredion, you’re tapping into a full-service partner with four decades of tapioca knowhow. By manufacturing local to the source, we’re able to manage the entire supply chain, providing you with a consistent, reliable supply with traceability and sustainable business practices that are second to none. Find out how our tapioca starches can help you formulate in-demand, on-trend products for today’s consumer and deliver beyond what’s expected.
