American Key Food Products Modified Potato and Tapioca Starches

American Key Food Products Modified Starch is a high-quality, food-grade starch derived from cassava roots that has been chemically modified under strict microbiological control. When prepared in water or milk with 7% solids, it produces a firm gel with a glossy appearance. This starch exhibits excellent resistance to retrogradation and syneresis, making it a popular choice in a variety of food applications, including children's foods, creams with fruit fillings, confectioners' cream, powdered and ready-made soups, frozen and canned foods, sauces, seasonings, and puddings. It has a high retention capacity and can resist retrogradation and syneresis even in freezing temperatures.
