## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for gluten free home bakers.
*by A***R on May 9, 2024*

If your tries at gluten free baking has been a big flop, I've been there. This product is irreplaceable. Greatly improves the volume and texture of breads, muffins, etc. Just make your recipe adjustment per package instructions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Make gluten-free bread, not bricks!
*by M***W on February 26, 2019*

We have been a gluten-free family for over 13 years, and do a LOT of gluten free baking.Using this as a 1-for-1 substitute for tapioca starch in our flour blends (NOT cup-for-cup with traditional recipes, we use no more than 1/3 Expandex in addition to other gluten free flours for the best results!) has created baked goods that rise a little higher, feel a little less dense, and have just a bit more of that "airy" texture that is traditionally missing. Is it a little more expensive? Yep. Is it worth it? For this family, ABSOLUTELY!By using the Subscribe-and-Save to order this at a discount, it's barely more expensive than the traditional tapioca I can find locally, and the texture difference is more than worth the tiny bit of extra cost.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More cohesive baked goods
*by E***E on May 21, 2020*

I got this specifically to make gluten free wonton wrappers. I've been gluten free for 5 years, and I've been slowly making gluten free foods that I can't find swaps for. I still have to make the wonton wrappers. But I've been adding about a tablespoon of this to other recipes, even though my gf flour has tapioca starch in it already. This makes my recipes come together a little better. The effect is slight, but to me, it's so worth it. And yes, I will be buying more of this when I run out!
