Products classified under HTS 1108.14.00.00
Tapioca Starch Powder
Pure cassava starch extracted from the root of the manioc plant, ground into a fine white powder. It is commonly used as a thickening agent in baking and cooking due to its neutral flavor and gluten-free properties. Classified under HTS 1108.14.00.00 as it is specifically cassava (manioc) starch, distinct from other cereal or tuber starches.
Organic Tapioca Starch
Certified organic cassava starch produced without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, ideal for health-conscious baking and gluten-free products. It meets strict organic standards while remaining a pure starch isolate. Falls under HTS 1108.14.00.00 for cassava starch, with organic certification noted separately.
Gluten-Free Cassava Starch Flour
Fine-milled starch from cassava roots, marketed specifically for gluten-free baking as a wheat flour substitute. It provides a smooth texture in sauces and puddings without altering flavor. HTS 1108.14.00.00 applies as unmodified cassava starch.
Tapioca Starch for Industrial Use
Technical-grade cassava starch used in paper manufacturing, adhesives, and textiles for its binding properties. Supplied in bulk with higher viscosity specs for non-food applications. Classified in HTS 1108.14.00.00 as cassava starch regardless of end use.
Instant Tapioca Starch Granules
Pre-gelatinized cassava starch granules that dissolve quickly in cold water for instant puddings and sauces. Retains pure starch composition without additives. HTS 1108.14.00.00 covers this as cassava starch, pre-gelatinization doesn't change base classification.
Food-Grade Manioc Starch
High-purity cassava (manioc) starch meeting food safety standards for use in noodles, snacks, and confectionery. Fine powder with low ash content per Chapter 11 specifications. Specifically HTS 1108.14.00.00 for manioc-derived starch.
Modified Cassava Starch (Native)
Native (unmodified chemically) cassava starch optimized for high clarity in gels, used in clear sauces and fruit fillings. Remains pure starch extract. Classifies under HTS 1108.14.00.00 as no chemical alteration occurs.
Bulk Cassava Starch Pellets
Pelletized cassava starch for efficient bulk shipping in food manufacturing. Pure starch formed into pellets without binders, meeting sieve purity standards. HTS 1108.14.00.00 for cassava starch in any physical form.
