Roquette launches new range of tapioca starches

Ingredients specialist Roquette has expanded its texturizing solutions range with the launch of four new tapioca-based cook-up starches.


The new solutions – Clearam TR 2010, Clearam TR 2510, Clearam TR 3010 and Clearam TR 4010 – have been specifically developed to address unmet texture needs of food manufacturers and complement existing botanical sources within the broader range.


These modified starches have been formulated to enhance viscosity, consistency and elasticity in various food applications including sauces, desserts, yogurts and bakery fillings.


The Clearam TR range delivers technical attributes such as improved thickening, good shelf-life stability and high heat resistance. According to Roquette, all grades are ‘clean-tasting’ and do not introduce any distinct flavours or off-notes.


Manufacturers can also utilise the solutions to enhance visual appeal. The starches, neutral in colour, are well-suited for applications that require a clear, transparent appearance or where the product’s original colour must be maintained.


While Clearam TR 3010 and TR 2510 are suitable for sauces, they provide different properties. TR 3010 is ideal for tomato-based sauces with a flowable consistency that works well in squeezable tubes or applications requiring higher spreadability. Meanwhile, with a low gelling temperature and high shelf-life stability, TR 2510 is better suited to high-salt sauce recipes and chilled products.


Clearam TR 4010 enhances the creamy mouthfeel of yogurt and desserts, while Clearam TR 3010 offers a ‘cleaner’ mouthfeel, heightened sweetness, enhanced flavour release and richer colour. TR 2010 is ideally suited to dough products that require a ‘satisfying bite, good chewiness and reduced stickiness,’ Roquette said.


Damien-Pierre Lesot, head of product marketing at Roquette, commented: “Our aim is to always push the boundaries of what is possible with our plant-based ingredients, placing taste, texture and technical ease above all else”.


He added: “Our new tapioca offering represents a significant advancement in food starch technology, providing manufacturers with versatile and high-quality texturizing solutions. By expanding our speciality starch solutions range, we are fulfilling our mission to support food producers in delivering exceptional texture and co-creating delicious and diverse food experiences.”
