White Lily Bread Flour, 5 Pound

This is not the super low gluten flour that White Lily makes famous for their biscuits. This is different high gluten wheat for loaves of bread. Naively, I thought the original flour could be used for making bread in my new breadmaker. The loaves I made with this flour were wonderful so I fully recommend it.

This is the best bread flour you will ever use.

I wish they had this at my local grocery store because it is too pricey here. I love White Lily Flour because it is so much lighter than regular flour and it makes such wonderful bread in my T-Fal bread machine. And the smell of bread baking with this flour is absolutely wonderful. I really love their All Purpose Flour too because it so super light that it makes heavenly cookie dough and outstanding fried chicken.

I make a batch of hot rolls every few days . Really good soft rolls .It cost more then other places but I needed it & its good . 4 cups of flour makes 18 hot rolls with yeast & other items in the recipe .

I prefer to use bread flour in my bread machine for bread and pizza dough recipes and I get consistently good results using this White Lily brand. I used to have this flour on subscribe and save at a good price. However, the constant price variations on this item seem to be some type of "bait and switch". Sometimes the price is reasonable but usually it is much higher than it should be and this is completely ridiculous. It will occasionally be at a good price but only for a very brief period of time, so you need to respond quickly before the price goes right back up again. This is an item that I always stock up on, when the price is right. I wouldn't even consider buying this item when it is extremely overpriced. It is too risky to leave this item on subscribe and save and be subject to one of the outrageous increases in price before future shipments. Amazon should look into whatever the problem is with the pricing on this item if they expect to keep subscribe and save customers. I would like to leave this item on subscribe and save because it is a good product but only at a reasonable price is it worth buying. I keep this item on my amazon wish list and when the price is low, I order multiple bags using subscribe and save but after receiving the order I cancel any future shipment. I like this product but there is nothing "magical" about White Lily and I can get adequate results with any bread flour, so I buy based on price. When I can get a 5 lb bag of Pillsbury bread flour for under $3.00 or Gold Medal bread flour for under $4.00 from Walmart any day of the week, there is no reason to pay an absurdly high price for this White Lily brand. Update: Walmart has even recently had this White Lily bread flour for sale for less than $3.00 for a 5 lb bag. I like this flour but I certainly wouldn't pay any more than I have to for it.

I will never bake another loaf of bread without White Lily Bread Flour!

I use this flour when I'm making sweet yeast breads and other breads that need a soft, fine texture. I'm in New England, and White Lily isn't sold here, so I'm happy to get it from Amazon. It works perfectly in my bread machine. I make the dough in the machine, then oven bake. Even though it's twice the price of bread flour I can buy locally, I feel it's worth the price. I do use the locally available King Arthur bread flour for heartier, rustic type yeast breads.

Like the previous reviewer, I am only reviewing the flour itself, not the insane price swings this product experiences. It is absolutely, hands down, the best bread flour I've ever used. It's fine and silky like all-purpose and self-rising White Lily flour, but contains enough gluten to make your yeast baked goods high and fluffy, with that wonderful "pull" the most irresistible breads and pastries have. It hasn't been available locally in my area (get on the stick Publix!) so I've depended on Amazon to supply it. Until the last week or two, it's been under $3.00 for 5 pounds. I cancelled my subscribe and save and refuse to buy it at today's price of over $10. Hopefully, my waistline will benefit.
