Where To Find A Big Bag Of Cake Flour?
Baking By sillyjodes Updated 7 Dec 2012 , 6:09pm by aprilismaius
Hi, I'm trying to find a large bag of cake flour so I can try JanH's Master mix. I usually get my flour in 25lb bags at sam's, but they only had bread and all purpose. I can only find the small boxes of soft silk at the grocery. They really add up!
Thanks,
Jodie
I don't know where you are located but if you have a GFS (Gordon Food Service) near you they can special order 50 lb. bags. They may take a few weeks but the savings is well worth it!
HTH!
You may want to make your own cake flour by reducing each cup of AP flur by 1 Tblsp and sifting in 1 Tblsp of corn starch. It would seem to be much more cost effective when doing a large project.

Nice answer Lenette.

I think the OP was talking about getting a 50# bag.

GFS has Express Order .... they can get most anything the next day. Flour is a pretty standard commodity, so you should be able to pick up the flour in a day or two at your local GFS store.
I have been wondering the same thing!
Where else can I find some? (I'm no where near a GFS)
Thanks
Have you talked to Sam's about ordering it for you? They actually have a person in each store who is a Customer Liason. I've had them check into pricing and ordering special items for me all the time. Some they can get ... some they can't. Just talk to someone at the Cust Svc Desk.
Thanks so much! I'll look for a GFS here in Las Vegas and give Sam's a call.
Thanks again,
Jodie

Thanks! I'll ask next time I go!
Are you anywhere near a Dawn Foods? Many of their warehouses have a Will Call Desk. That's where I get mine.
try the buisness section in the phone book.look for bakery supply wholesale . I use a bakery supply buisness in my area. they have every thing that a bakery uses all in large sizes. they sell to me all the time they beat sam's in price by alot.
good luck
Ingredientwarehouse.com sells cake flour in large quantity
They only sell cake flour in 6# bags for $5. By comparison, Restaurant Depot sells 50# bags of cake flour for $15.
Jodie, You've got Freed's right there in Vegas. One of the largest bakeries in the whole country. Maybe they would sell you a 50# bag? Or just ask where they buy their flour.
Does anyone make their own cake flour? Does it work just as well? Cake four just seems $$$ to me.
I order my cake flour from Honeyville Grain store.honeyvillegrain.com/sno-kingcakeflour50lb.aspx
