Waxy Tapioca Starch is an amylose-free starch with up 100% of amylopectin content. Waxy tapioca starches perform well in refrigerated and frozen foods as opposed to waxy starches and non-waxy starches from maize, wheat, and potato. Unmodified waxy tapioca starch yields thick, clear pastes with good shelf life. With a rising demand for clean-label foods by consumers and markets, the cold-temperature stability of waxy tapioca starch offers an attractive alternative to the use of chemically or genetically modified starch in frozen/refrigerated foods
Native Mung Bean Starch is a starch made by extracting the starch out from mung beans. The product is mainly produced in Asia and is often used to produce the traditional glass noodles or vermicelli.
Native Pea starch, a unique starch produced from yellow peas that performs well to produce vermicelli.
On many occasions, it is used in combination with High Viscosity Potato Starch to produce noodles.

ALPHA (±) Pre-gelatinized Starch is a cold-water-swelling, tapioca starch. It is processed to create powder which have a certain size, shape, and structure, fabricating a particularly smooth surface. Alpha starch is suitable for multi-purposes in food application. It is cold water soluble, and consistency exhibits an instant swelling when added to aqueous preparation.
Rice starch, commonly used in the food industry, is a unique in its starch granule size and molecular structure of both its amylose and amylopectin. The small granule size in combination with its neutral taste and white color, makes rice starch very popular as whitening and smoothening agent in confectionery coatings of chocolate lentils, liquorice and chewing gum, and bakery icings and fillings. As natural ingredient rice starch can replace titanium dioxide, being a commonly used additive in the food industry
as whitening agent.
Resistant Tapioca Starch is a prebiotic that contributes to daily fiber intake and gut health. Resistant starch doesnt get processed by the stomach and small intestine due to which it doesnt raise glucose levels. As the fibers ferment they act as a prebiotic and feed the good bacteria in the gut.
Modified Tapioca starches are used in a wide variety of food applications. Applications depend on kind of chemical or physical modification. Chemically modified starches are categorized as Food additives where the physically modified starches (pre-cooked) can be used and labeled as clean label food ingredients.
Chemically modified starches contain an E-number; the declaration is Modified
starch. Oxidized starch (E1404) is a suitable carrier for food mixtures exhibiting low viscosities after hot preparation. Compared to native starches, acetylated cook-up starches (E1420) are characterized through lower gelatinization temperatures and an improved stability against retrogradation. Regarding heat treatment, acidic conditions and shear forces, di-starch phosphates (E1412) are stable in terms of their viscosity. Acetylated di-starch phosphates (E1414) and adipates (E1422) additionally exhibit excellent freeze-thaw stability as well as clear appearance of the final preparation. Starch sodium octenyl succinate (E1450) exhibits emulsifying properties making it perfectly suitable in the application of oil-in water applications.
Clean label starches free from E-numbers (food additives). Main
applications are soups, sauces, snacks, surimi, processed sea food and processed meat where it used as a
thickener, binder, texturizer, anti-caking, or gelling agent. Available native potato starches:
Standard viscosity
High viscosity
Low Moisture (9%, 12% residue of water)
Tapioca Pearls are balls, offered in different sizes and colors, that are edible translucent spheres. They originated as a cheaper alternative to pearl sago in Southeast Asian cuisine. The big size pearls are used for the famous bubble tea where the smaller sizes are used as inclusion for puddings.
