Extrudable composition derived from renewable resources

An extrudable composition having a heat deflection temperature of greater than about 50° C. and a melting point between about 80° C. to 190° C., wherein the extrudable composition comprises:

• a) about 60 to about 99.8% partially crystalline or crystalline polylactic acid;
• b) about 0.05 to about 8% cyclodextrin;
• c) about 0.1 to about 8% natural oil, fatty acid, fatty acid ester, wax or waxy ester;
• d) about 0.01 to about 5% nanofibers;
• e) about 0 to about 10% crystallinity agent;
• f) about 0 to about 1% starch-based melt rheology modifier;
• g) about 0 to about 5% colorant;
• h) about 0 to about 1% plasticizer;
• i) about 0 to about 1% gloss agent;
• and
• j) about 0 to about 1% barrier agent.
