Wheat starch refers to a white-colored powder that is derived from the wheat plant of the genus Triticum from the grass family, Gramineae. Extracted from hydrated flour, wheat starch is widely used in the food and beverage industry as a thickening agent, food additive and an active ingredient. Wheat starch also acts as an emulsifier, stabilizer and a clouding or glazing agent. Additionally, it is utilized to improve the texture, viscosity, gel formation, adhesion, binding and moisture retention of various food items. Apart from cooking, it also has the property to absorb excess oil and impurities, which makes it an ideal ingredient in numerous skin care products. As a result, it is extensively employed in the preparation of face masks and body cleansing products.
