WinCrest Granulated Tapioca – 3 lb Tub | Thickening for Puddings, Pies & Sauces

Overview

Discover the versatility of WinCrest Bulk Foods Granulated Tapioca. This 3 lb tub brings small, starchy granules that excel at thickening desserts, pies, gravies, soups, and stews. Generated textures can range from silky to subtly pearled, depending on your method, all while maintaining a clean, neutral flavor that won’t compete with your fillings or toppings.
