Applications of the cassava starch

Cassava starch is a thickener and stabilizer used in fruit cakes, soups, desserts, breads, soy sauces, and meat products. It can withstand long periods of cooking without breaking down.


Products made with cassava do not lose quality when frozen and reheated, because cassava retains its thickening capabilities throughout these processes. Cassava turns clear and gel-like when cooked and completely dissolves when used as a thickener.


Many products contain cassava starch, preferred for its superior gelling, thickening and texturing properties.
