Ingredients

The strong organic bread flour from Marriage’s mill has been specifically selected for the high protein content and taste. This protein content is what gives the flour its strength and elasticity. The flour is milled using traditional methods, which preserves the natural nutrients and flavour of the wheat. It is also free from chemicals and additives, making it a healthy and eco-friendly choice for bakers. Marriage’s Mill have been milling flour for over 200 years and their honed expertise transcends through this fabulous bread flour.
