The Story Behind My Award Winning* Gluten Free Flour Blend
As a scientist and mum of a child with coeliac disease, food allergies and intolerances I developed my unique whole grain gluten free flour without rice to nourish her with wholesome nutritious food.It’s important for me to know that she is getting vital nutrients along with protein and fibre whenever she eats, and having found no suitable flour blends on the market I created my own.
Now I know that whatever I make for her, from pasta to bread, cakes and pastry she is getting some goodness with every mouthful.
On its own it can be used to make:
- Bread
- Biscuits
- Crepes
- Flatbreads (wraps)
- Pasta
- Pizza bases
- Pastry (shortcrust, rough puff, choux and Danish) and more
With the addition of baking powder (1tsp per 100g) it can be used to make:
- Cakes
- American pancakes
- Scones
- Soda breads
- Waffles and more
One bag of flour is all you need for all your baking.

How do I store it?
The flour should be stored in an air tight container. It has a shelf life of 12 months (current batch July 2021) but this can be extended by storing the flour in the freezer.
Is it tested gluten free?
It is very important to me that anything I create is completely gluten free with no trace of contamination. For this reason the flour is manufactured in a totally gluten free environment. It is also tested for gluten using the R5 – Sandwich ELIZA (Mendez method) in an independent laboratory, Food Allergen Centre.
You can view the latest test certificate here…19.10.19 Eliza batch 201921.
Being a small independent manufacturer I can’t afford to pay for the Crossed Grain Symbol.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Yes, the flour packets are made from paper so please recycle them.

Customer Reviews
We're all able to enjoy bread again...
After becoming gluten intolerant
This is the best gluten free flour I have found and about the only one that works well in my breadmaker. One member of my family is seriously allergic to gluten and dairy and eggs. This flour is the perfect answer.
It is much better that competitors and I've made bread in the breadmaker with it.
This flour is very good , even though it is slightly darker than ordinary flour.
My cooking skills are not brilliant but cakes were fine.
I've made ordinary sponge cake with it.
I've been following Vicki for some years via her website
The flour is amazing, the best flour bar none. And I've used a few.
I've made bread, cakes, sponges and a whole lot of other stuff you'd normally think of with flour, thickening, cooking, and general baking. I don't do a huge amount as I'm single and like to watch my weight, so I resist making cakes apart from when I've got the house open to my Church and they love the cakes as I make them all GF and people never seem to realise that we're all eating the same thing, but they taste so good. Highly recommend, to quote an old advert, "Why choose cotton, when you can have silk.?"
Delicious and nutritious free from flour.
I've use this flour to make the family pancakes which were delicious and have every intention to use it making pastry too...anyone who's gluten free will probably share my fear of making gluten free pastry but The Free From Fairy has also written an ebook on how to make pastry with her flour...It's on my to-do-list for 2017 to master the art of pastry once and for all!
Makes Delicious Bread!
Made your bread for the first time yesterday. It's delicious. Actually it's too delicious I will be eating far too much of it. It was also so easy to make. Won't be buying bread anymore. Thanks.
Transforms life!
It was the fourth birthday party this weekend of our grandson who is allergic to many things. I had baked a loaf with your gluten free flour when he last came to visit. All was well and I recommended your flour to our daughter-in-law. She says is has transformed her life and she uses your flour for everything. The baking she had done for the party, using your flour, was delicious.
No rice = no arsenic
I've been desperate to find a gluten free flour that doesn't use rice flour (I'm concerned about arsenic levels in rice, and the amount of rice flour used in gluten free food). I was so excited when I found this flour. I've used it so far for cakes, waffles and breads and all have been amazing. An added bonus is that it's wholegrain. I love it. I can highly recommend it.
I loved this gluten free flour. It tasted delicious when used in recipes.
It's great because I wasn’t having to mix several flours together and I loved the whole meal content as most other premixed bread flours are bleached white flour.
I made the bread with sunflower seeds and not only did it look like the picture, it tasted amazing and my family loved it. I’ve made it several times now and it always comes out well. I also used the sr flour in banana bread and it was delicious.
Hello Vicki, I am finding your flour really good for baking and any recipe requiring flour as an ingredient. I like it better than the doves ones I used to use.

Best GF bread ever! Have tried processed brands but been unhappy with all the added rubbish. Have also tried making my own from other GF flours but the taste was poor. The loaf I just made from Free From Fairy flour was just lovely, texture, taste everything, and has frozen really well. So simple to make too.. just need a high-sided loaf tin now!

The Free From Fairy flour is amazing. Its easy to work with and the results are fantastic. Having a corn/gluten/oat free need, this flour is the only flour that my daughter can use. This flour creates tasty, delicious meals and enabled my daughter to have a Christmas like any other. I made sausage rolls and scotch eggs as well a Christmas pudding, mince and apple pies. These were enjoyed by all, not just my daughter and comments received were that you would never know they were free from foods. With her birthday looming another free from fairy flour cake is on its way.
Without the Free From Fairy flour my daughter would miss out on many yummy meals, puddings and foods.
Highly recommended.

I got this at a food festival a few months back and now m putting in an order… The best free from flour I have come across (and I’ve tried a lot!) it has such a nice taste and cooks well. Very impressed.

I first tried this flour at a blogging event. I knew that some flour had been provided and I asked the organiser at the end of the day what had happened to it. I was told it was used in all the cakes and biscuits we’d been eating all day. You Are Kidding Me I said! The flour is so good I had had no idea. I truly could not tell the difference (and I’m a picky madam that generally avoids the gluten free option as they’re always dry and gritty).
So now I recommend Free From Fairy flour on every blog post/recipe where I suggest a gluten free flour can be used if needed and I have every confidence that it will work perfectly every single time.

FANTASTIC flour, for those of us that are Rice/Gluten intolerant it’s a game changer. To get anything rice free is a joy. I use it to make sauces, for example cheese sauce and it doesn’t leave an unwelcome flavour as other gf ingredients do. I must use it more, but I’m a novice/lazy baker. Highly recommend, a great product.

Great product! Reliably tasty, works really well as GF substitute in normal recipes.

I purchased this at Christmas and made a fantastic fruit cake. I have since made scones, muffins, biscuits. I love this flour and am thankful for that more wholesome feel rather than the white gluten free flours in the supermarket. Yes it does cost a bit more but the results have been worth it.
I have just ordered my second lot and am looking forward to experimenting more with my sugar free baking.
As I’m gluten and lactose free it’s really hard to get anything when I’m out. I can now bake healthy versions and take them with me.
I never have bread as not keen on gluten free so have also purchased the bread mix to try. I will let you know how that goes.
