At last! A modern soft white winter wheat berry ideal for pastry and all-purpose flour! This lower-gluten flour produces a crumb tender enough for delicate cakes, fluffy biscuits, and tender cookies. Our Organic Snowbird Pastry Wheat Berries also also light in colour which for a prettier presentation of that luscious slice of birthday cake or, yes, wedding cake.

For heartier baked goods, such as quick breads, crisp cookies, bars, or pie crusts, use as-is or add some mildly flavoured higher protein flour, such as Spelt or Rouge de Bordeaux, for your own All-Purpose-Flour blend.

Wheat berries can stay fresh for about 2-4 years when stored in a cool, dry location. For even longer shelf life, store in the freezer. Whenever you mill, you will produce fully fresh, nutrient rich flour. And as a bonus, 1 cup of wheat berries becomes about 2 cups of flour, thus saving on valuable storage space.

Of course, whole grain flour contains all the bran and germ in the wheat berry, so isn't quite the texture of highly processed commercial pastry flour, which is almost entirely wheat starch with chemical additives. The pastry flour product on store shelves is very different from the nutritionally dense, 100% natural pastry flour possible with Organic Snowbird Pastry Wheat. You may need to tweak your recipes slightly, but don't be surprised if you love the results more than ever!
