Tapioca Starch Market: Challenges in Replacing Common Flours & Toxic Risk of Cyanide Confining Growth

Albeit theoretical implications of cassava flour’s ability to completely replace its wheat counterpart, practical limits have been witnessed while determining levels of substitution regarding the same. This has inhibited the use of tapioca starch in convenience food products, such as cakes, biscuits, and breads, where wheat flour has held pervasive dominance. Such irreplaceable applications of wheat flour in the processed and packaged food industry is likely to remain a key challenge for tapioca starch market stakeholders.

Commercially available tapioca starch, considered third most imperative food source across tropical regions, is generally deemed as safe for human consumption by the FDA. However, poor processing methods employed have led to remnants of leaves & roots’ traces, which contain “linamarin” that further triggers cyanide production. Improper processing methods used for tapioca starch have resulted in numerous cyanide-associated health issues, including nerve-damaging ailments and goitre, especially in malnourished individuals. Chronic toxic effects of cyanide, coupled with surplus alternatives to tapioca starch, has been limiting growth of the tapioca starch market.

Cultivated by economically-challenged upland farmers, cassava is produced as a secondary refuge crop. Despite vital importance and robust penetration in the food and nutrition industry, cassava roots are yet ignored in the field of R&D, while facing low priority among national governments. Unawareness among consumers with regard to their daily consumption of tapioca starch has been the primary backing factor responsible for ignorance in modern applications of this cassava extract. Additionally, the tapioca starch market has prevailed off radar, in terms of private sector investments. This has further confined the scope of innovation in the tapioca starch market beyond the processing industry.

Tapioca Starch Market: Application in Infant Nutrition & Baby Foods Emerging as a Key Trend

Tapioca starch has witnessed extensive adoption as bodying agent in a plethora of commercially available baby food products and infant nutritional supplements. Gluten-free, organic tapioca starch has witnessed high consumption from individuals affected from celiac disease. Uptake of female working population, which has driven demand for infant formulas, will further compliment expansion of the tapioca starch market in the upcoming years.

This cassava extract represents robust consumption as “superfood” in countries such as India, in light of its associated health benefits. Besides enriched with carbohydrates, tapioca starch is rich in minerals, such as calcium and iron, essential for maintaining bone and blood health. Additionally, tapioca pearls witness high consumption on account of their traits including blood pressure regulation, and constipation & indigestion prevention. Health benefits such as these will continue to drive popularity of this cassava extract, and fuel future growth of the tapioca starch.
