Wheat Starch
Wheat Starch is one of the most popular food ingredients used in breads and similar. Closely linked to Vital Wheat Gluten which is often considered a by-product in the production of wheat starch, it appears as a white fine powder with neutral odour and taste. Get more information from us today.
Tapioca Starch
You may refer to Tapioca Starch by other names such as cassava, madioca and manioc. Whatever you call it, you will know that this versatile starch is an excellent substitute for more diet friendly dishes. This is an excellent thickener for sauces, pies and soups as well as being a source of dietary fibre, ‘good cholesterol’ and protein.
Potato Starch
Often used as a binder and thickener in a wide variety of food applications including sauces and soups, canned vegetables, convenience foods, meat products and snacks, we pride ourselves on being able to promptly service the market with a high quality of European potato starch. Our major supply is to the meat industry.
Maize / Corn Starch
It is believed that Corn starch was discovered in the year 1840 by Thomas Kingsford whilst he was working as the superintendent of a wheat starch factory in Jersey City, New Jersey. Until 1852, corn starch was used primarily for starching laundry and industrial uses. Derived from corn (maize), it is a very popular starch of choice for the thickening of sauces and soups.
