MrsE_2

Does this seem right to you

1.5 kgs of strong white bread flour for £5.00:eek:

Its WRIGHTS flour, a bakery I like uses it. But not at £5.00 for 1.5kgs:eek:

I've emailed them to ask, will update you.

Anyone used it at home?

5 x 1.5kg in a box

Hmmmm, might get some

You get 5 bags of 1.5kg each, so that's £1 each, plus the postage of £6.99, so each bag would cost £2.40. Tesco bread flour does the job - last time I bought some it had gone down to 63p for 1.5kg (normally 71p)

If you do want really good strong bread flour then Waitrose Canadian is the one, but it is not 63p a bag, nor is it £2.40

The extra added by the P&P makes it ridiculously expensive, however if you order 3 cases of 5 x 1.5 Kg, then the postage is free. Then it becomes quite reasonably priced.

If you buy 3 boxes (for £15) it only works out £1 a bag.

This works out £1 a bag & I used to use that bakery before I got my bread maker.
It's quite expensive & was near my work but a good way from my home, but I used them because the bread was lovely.

So at £1 a bag its cheaper than Waitrose Canadian & it makes fab bread for the bakers.

I reckon 3 boxes (£15) which is 15 bags at 1.5kg per bag would last me about 5 months.

Would I need to store it in a special way?

So how much is it then? I use sainsburys or tesco bread flour, depending which supermarche I'm in

I wonder if it would be better merged with the bread / bread machine threads?
