FREEE Gluten-Free Plain White Flour (1kg) - Award-Winning Blend

Our special FREEE flour blend milled from naturally gluten free ingredients is a great alternative to everyday wheat flour. Follow one of our gluten free recipes or adapt a traditional recipe by adding a little extra liquid.

My love of baking, together with the gluten free demands within my family, led me to create a flour blend that is the perfect alternative to gluten containing flours. The result is this award winning Plain White Flour, a gluten free store cupboard essential. Today there is an increasing need for foods free from gluten and other allergens including milk, peanut, egg and soya.

FREEE

My gluten free journey began in 1978 when I discovered how difficult it was to find suitable grains and foods for a gluten free diet. The distinctive attributes of alternative grains and their ability to create spectacular dishes is still my inspiration.
