Cassava & Tapioca Flour (Kappa / Sabudana (Mogo)) is a versatile, naturally gluten-free ingredient derived from cassava tubers, processed into fine flour or graded pearls (sabudana). Sourced from prime Indian growing regions, it serves as a crucial raw material for the gluten-free, bakery, and food processing industries globally.
Sourcing & Origin
Treedha's Cassava & Tapioca Flour, including Kappa / Sabudana (Mogo), yuca flour, and manioc flour, originates from the tropical lowlands of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, specifically the Salem belt in India. These regions offer ideal climatic conditions for cultivating high-quality cassava tubers.
Our sourcing ensures full traceability, connecting buyers directly to the origin. This regional specialisation allows us to provide a consistent supply of tubers, which are then meticulously processed into fine food-grade flour or into the distinctive sabudana pearls (tapioca pearls or sago). This direct origin connection is vital for bulk buyers seeking reliability and consistent product characteristics.
Export Grades & Specifications
In the bulk trade, Cassava & Tapioca Flour is primarily offered as food-grade fine flour or as graded tapioca pearls (sabudana). Key specifications focus on purity, moisture, and particle consistency to meet diverse industrial applications.
Our fine flour is milled to precise granulation standards, ensuring suitability for bakery and thickening applications. Sabudana pearls are categorised by size uniformity, a critical factor for traditional and ethnic culinary uses. All products are naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and vegan, verified through lab testing to confirm purity and compliance with food-grade standards.

Vragen
- Is sabudana hetzelfde als tapiocaparels?
- Ja. Sabudana is de Indiase naam voor tapiocaparels, de kleine doorschijnende bolletjes gemaakt van cassavezetmeel. Het is hetzelfde product dat wereldwijd wordt gebruikt in khichdi, kheer en puddingen.
- Is cassavemeel hetzelfde als tapiocameel?
- Ze zijn nauw verwant maar niet identiek. Cassavemeel is de hele gedroogde, gemalen wortel, terwijl tapiocameel of -zetmeel enkel het geëxtraheerde zetmeel is. Cassavemeel is dichter en beter voor brood; tapiocazetmeel is het best voor binden en beet.
- Is het glutenvrij?
- Ja. Zowel het meel als de parels zijn van nature glutenvrij en graanvrij, wat ze een populaire keuze maakt voor paleo-, coeliakie- en vastendiëten.
