DESCRIPTION- Tapioca starch is the starch derived from the roots of the cassava plant, which is native to the northern and northeast regions of Brazil. Tapioca starch is a popular culinary ingredient that is commonly used to thicken sauces and soups, as well as to generate corn syrup and other sugars. It is extremely adaptable and has a wide range of industrial uses, including adhesives, paper products, anti-sticking agents, and textile manufacturing.

BENEFITS AND USES-

  • Our Tapioca Starch is used as a thickening agent in liquid-based foods like soups, sauces, gravies, and desserts.
  • It's used to improve the texture and moisture content of burgers, nuggets, and dough by retaining moisture in a gel-like structure and avoiding sogginess.
  • Our tapioca is used for making gluten-free bread after combining it with other flours, which makes it extremely useful for people allergic to wheat, grain, or gluten. 
  • It is a convenient and cost-effective remedy for soothing skin burns and reducing skin itchiness.
  • Our tapioca starch can also be used to stabilise emulsions, generate gel textures, and help important components reach the skin.
  • It quickly absorbs excess oil from the skin, leaving it smooth and silky.
  • Tapioca Starch is used to manufacture bioplastics and can be used in the manufacturing of airbags.

HOW IT WORKS-

  • The starch molecules work by absorbing water.
  • When added to food recipes, these starch molecules thicken the mixture by absorbing water. 
  • When added to cosmetics, starch absorbs moisture from the air and fixes it onto the upper layers of skin. Hence, moisturising your skin.

CONCENTRATION AND SOLUBILITY-

  • It is recommended that it should be used at a concentration of 0.5% to 30%. 
  • It is soluble in oil but is insoluble in water and alcohol.  
  •  

    HOW TO USE-  

    • Mix our Tapioca Starch with hot water in a ratio of 1:1 to form a homogenous mixture.
    • Add this mixture to the oil phase of your DIY cosmetic formulation or your food recipe.
    • Blend the water and oil phases using a mini-mixer or a large mixing spoon.
