Frequently Asked Questions

What is arrowroot powder and what are its main uses?

Arrowroot Powder is extracted from the roots of the Maranta arundinacea plant and is a versatile, naturally gluten-free thickening agent. This 100% USDA Certified Organic powder is an excellent alternative to cornflour, perfect for adding smoothness and richness to sauces, soups, stews, glazes, pie fillings, and puddings without clouding or altering the taste or colour of your dishes. It's commonly used in gluten-free baking, lending a light, delicate texture to a wide variety of recipes. The silky white powder is chock full of beneficial vitamins and minerals such as zinc, iron, and vitamin B6.

How is arrowroot powder used in natural deodorants and skincare?

Arrowroot powder is a must-have ingredient for formulating effective natural deodorants. It's incredibly effective at absorbing excess moisture without blocking your sweat glands, maintaining the skin's natural function. The powder has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce skin irritations and improve skin texture - if you suffer from razor burn, this ingredient is helpful. The silky texture helps deodorants glide on smoothly, leaving no sticky or gritty residue. Combining arrowroot powder with baking soda enhances moisture absorption and neutralises odours with improved dryness and odour control due to the pH-balancing effect. It's the unsung hero in natural personal care products.

How do I use arrowroot powder for baking and thickening?

For baking and thickening, mix 1 teaspoon in 100ml of water and add to the desired liquid or mixture. Arrowroot works particularly well in recipes that need to remain clear or translucent, as it doesn't cloud liquids like cornflour can. It's perfect for fruit glazes, clear sauces, and delicate puddings. In gluten-free baking, it provides a light, tender crumb to cakes, cookies, and pastries. The 227g pack provides numerous servings depending on use. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness. Best Before: Jan 2027.

Is arrowroot powder safe and are there any contraindications?

There are no contraindications for arrowroot powder when used as directed. The product is non-GMO with no fillers, no binders, and no common allergens. It's 100% plant-based, gluten-free, and GMP certified, making it safe for most dietary restrictions and preferences. Natural deodorants containing arrowroot are typically safe during pregnancy, though it's best to consult with your healthcare provider. If you experience a rash when using arrowroot-containing products, it may be due to other ingredients like baking soda rather than the arrowroot itself. The pure, organic nature of this powder makes it gentle and suitable for various applications.

How does arrowroot powder compare to cornflour and other thickeners?

Arrowroot is superior to cornflour in several ways: it doesn't cloud or alter the taste or colour of dishes, works at lower temperatures, and is naturally gluten-free making it suitable for those with coeliac disease or gluten intolerance. It creates a smoother, silkier texture compared to wheat flour or cornflour. Unlike some thickeners that can make sauces gummy or opaque, arrowroot maintains clarity and creates a beautiful sheen. It's also easier to digest than many grain-based thickeners. The organic certification ensures it's free from pesticides and genetic modification. For skincare and deodorant formulations, its moisture-absorbing properties are unmatched by most alternatives whilst being gentle on skin.
