Tapioca Maltodextrin

Tapioca Maltodextrin is a white, starchy powder derived from the hydrolysis of tapioca starch from the cassava root (Manihot esculenta). It is a polysaccharide composed of short glucose chains with little to no sweetness depending on its dextrose equivalent (DE). Common uses include thickening or bulking in food products, serving as a carrier for flavors, fats, or colors, and providing a caloric carbohydrate source in energy products.
