Tapioca starch and cornstarch are both fine-grain flours with a few key differences: Source: While tapioca starch comes from the root of the cassava plant, cornstarch comes from corn kernels; therefore, tapioca starch is a root starch, and cornstarch is a grain starch.
Label appeal: There is no gluten, grain, nut or dairy in tapioca starch, which supports allergen-free labeling and celiac needs; ketogenic and paleo lifestyles; and kosher, halal and vegan requirements.
