Rice flour has gone up 20% from when we started a year ago, to more than $40 for a 50 lb. bag. Steve thinks it will go a lot higher. It’s not just flour, either. It’s eggs and evaporated cane juice and chocolate, everything. [...] [...] At the same time, the cost of ingredients is squeezing bakeries of all sorts, gf or wheaty.

(I knew if I wrote about Steve I'd get a bite - :-) - He's been a beloved part of GF life for a long time. ) Garfava also helps reduce the carb count in breads - GF food always seems higher in carbs and calories than traditional. :-( Thanks, Seamaiden, for joining in!

I haven't made a phone order in years, but I used to when I was in college and I remember how helpful Steve was. I think AF is a great company, especially for their high quality basic flours like brown rice and garfava. Personally I get the best results for breads out of garfava, following Bette Hagman's recipes, so I'm quite big on bean flour at my house. :) It's also a great flour for a (mostly) vegetarian baker like me. So a hearty yay all around for Authentic Foods. (and no, i have no affiliation. lol.) Oh yes, and their rye flavor is cool, too. :) -Sea I couldn’t agree more- Steve of Authentic Foods is really terrific to deal with.
