What is Tapioca?

Making Tapioca by sifting flour into a pan

Tapioca is a very popular and traditional Brazilian dish made from cassava root, with a soft and elastic texture. In Brazil, tapioca is often eaten as a street food, filled with fresh savory or sweet ingredients.

Tapioca has a long history, going way back to Brazil's first people. When the Portuguese arrived centuries ago, they quickly caught on to tapioca because it was simple to make and really filling. It was a perfect food for their journeys, showing how practical tapioca has always been.

Tapioca is light, gluten-free and an excellent source of energy, making it perfect choice for anyone looking for a healthy yet tasty treat! At Tapi Tapi, we make our tapioca the traditional Brazilian way, but with a Belgian flavor touch.

Our Story

The Tapi Tapi Team

Hey there! We're André and Lyana, a couple united by our love for delicious Tapioca!

Our Tapi Tapi journey began when Lyana first visited Brazil. As any good Brazilian would, André introduced her to the vibrant local cuisine. But it was Tapioca that truly stole Lyana's heart! During her Erasmus experience, it quickly became her daily go-to, a taste of Brazil she couldn't get enough of.

From that moment, the dream of opening our own Tapioca spot started to brew. After countless experiments, fun family gatherings, and friends' taste tests, that dream finally became a reality! We're thrilled to now bring the delicious Tapiocas right to the streets of Belgium.

We're passionate about using only the freshest, top-quality ingredients to craft both classic and exciting new tapioca creations. Each one is a little piece of Brazil, made with a special Belgian touch of love and creativity, just for you!

Come say hi! We can't wait to share our food with you.
