Anita's Organic Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
Wheat is not in this blend.
Anita's gluten-free flour mixes organic oat flour, brown rice flour, potato starch, tapioca starch and arrowroot. The page lists bread, cakes, cookies, muffins and pancakes. A wheat recipe needs xanthan gum added. This blend does not include it.
The gluten-free line is made in a dedicated space in Chilliwack and certified by the Canadian Celiac Association. The Canada shop sells one size, a 1 kg bag in a 4-pack priced at $48. The bag may contain tree nuts.
The oat and rice are organic. The page does not say the potato, tapioca or arrowroot were grown in Canada.

Company’s own label claim: “MADE IN CANADA”
Partly. Chilliwack is where this wheat-free blend is produced, under a Canadian majority owner. Potato starch, tapioca and arrowroot have no country on the label.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Anita's gluten free flour made in Canada?
Yes. Anita's Organic Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Flour is blended in Chilliwack, in a room kept apart from wheat. A national celiac group certifies that line.
Does this gluten-free flour replace wheat cup for cup?
Not by itself. The page says to add xanthan when a recipe was written for wheat, because this mix has no gum in it.
Are the starches Canadian?
The page does not say. Oat flour and brown rice flour are listed as organic. The three starches have no growing country printed.
What size is the gluten-free bag?
1 kg, and the shop only sells it by the fours. That case is listed at $48.
May Anita's gluten-free flour contain nuts?
Yes. The label says tree nuts are a may-contain. Wheat is not on the ingredient list.
