What is it?

Waxy Corn starch stands out due to it’s high amylopectin content of up to 99%. This gives it a better paste stability and enhances its clarity and texture. When applied, waxy corn starch readily cooks into a smooth, dense structure that maintains a creamy consistency upon cooling.

By using this starch, producers can reduce the fat content of their products, without affecting its taste or texture. Despite being labelled as native, waxy corn starch exhibits texture similar to that of modified starches.

Corn kernels and husk lose up.
