Does the type of tapioca starch affect boba texture?

I’ve been experimenting with making my own boba, and I’m curious if the type of tapioca starch makes a noticeable difference in the final texture. Anyone else tried different brands or types and noticed a difference?

Yes, the type of tapioca starch can definitely affect the texture! Some brands produce a chewier boba, while others might be softer or more brittle. It’s worth experimenting with a few to see which texture you prefer.
