Maizena Light Sauce Thickener

Maizena is a globally recognized brand primarily known for its cornstarch products. Its history dates back to the mid-19th century in the United States, where it was originally developed and registered by the Glen Cove Manufacturing Company. Over time, it became an essential kitchen staple for thickening sauces, soups, and desserts.

Today, the brand's ownership is split geographically. In most European and Northern European markets, Maizena is owned and managed by Unilever. Unilever, a British multinational, produces these products in various facilities across Europe to serve local markets such as Scandinavia and Finland. In other regions, most notably Latin America, the brand is owned by Ingredion. This specific packaging is tailored for the Nordic market, featuring Danish, Swedish, and Finnish instructions.
