Cassava flour (1kg)

Versatile. Starchy.

Cassava flour is made from the whole cassava root, giving it a naturally high starch content and a fine, pale flour with a mild flavour. It’s a versatile ingredient for gluten free cooking and baking, bringing body, structure and a soft, cohesive texture to recipes.

It works particularly well in tortillas, flatbreads and baked goods, while its high starch content also makes it useful for thickening sauces and creating a range of gluten free doughs and batters.

What does cassava flour do?

• Adds body and structure – useful in gluten free doughs, batters and baked goods.
• High in starch – contributes to a soft, cohesive texture.
• Mild flavour – works well in both sweet and savoury recipes.
• Good water absorption – helps create workable doughs for tortillas and flatbreads.
• Naturally gluten-free – a useful alternative flour for gluten-free formulation.

Cassava flour vs tapioca starch

Although both come from the same cassava root, they are not interchangeable.

Cassava flour is made from the whole root, so it contains more of the natural components of the cassava and behaves as a flour. Tapioca starch is extracted starch, giving it a much more concentrated functional effect on elasticity, chew, thickening and crispness.

If you want the character and body of cassava, use the flour. If you need a highly functional starch, reach for tapioca starch.

Perfect for: tortillas, flatbreads, breads, cakes, biscuits, pancakes, batters, sauces and gluten free flour blends.
