Finally! We have launched our FAVOURITE ALMOND FLOUR BAKING MIXES!

Posted on October 31, 2012 by Jodi Bager | 0 Comments

Hello All,

We are thrilled to announce that OUR FAVOURITE ALMOND FLOUR BAKING MIXES are now available!  These products took us a while to develop but we believe, as the saying goes, anything worth doing, is worth doing well. And well, with these, we think we've really done well!  We recently sampled our baking mixes at the Canadian Health Food Association show in Toronto and the response was more than we could have hope for.

First a little history.  These mixes were developed for YOU.  Yes, YOU!  For years you, our customers, have been asking us to ship our delicious muffins to you.  But we can't - at least not if you live outside Ontario and Quebec.  Our muffins have no preservatives so they have a very short shelf-life and have to stored in the freezer.  For that reason, we can only ship them to places within a 1 day shipping window from our Toronto factory.  But we realized that just wasn't fair.  So out of this dilemma came the inspiration for our baking mixes.  Just like the muffins we make in our GF - JKG kitchen, OUR FAVOURITE ALMOND FLOUR MUFFIN MIX has no preservatives, and no artificial anything; just the goodness of almond flour and the sweetness of organic unrefined coconut nectar. You get to add your own banana, chocolate chips, blueberries - whatever your heart desires to make these YOUR FAVOURITE!  And the same goes for our COOKIE MIX, PIE & TART CRUST MIX, and OUR PANCAKE & WAFFLE MIX.  They are all natural, all simple, and all FABULOUS!  Personally, I adore OUR FAVOURITE PIE & TART CRUST MIX.  With it, I make my famous Apple Galette with Caramel Sauce (see recipe below.) The crust is light and the perfect combination of moist and crumbly - when this is dessert, there are never any left-overs!  our COOKIE MIX is a favourite of everyone...especially when you make them with chocolate chips. Fresh out of the oven or cooled down (if you can hold off!), they rival any cookie any of our tasters (and we've had a TON of them) have ever had!  I love our PANCAKE & WAFFLE MIX best with bananas or blueberries - they taste like pancakes and waffles - really, just like the real deal!

As a way to celebrate the launch of the new addition to our Grain-Free JK Gourmet product line, we are offering a discount coupon good for 10% off all OUR FAVOURITE ALMOND FLOUR BAKING MIXES.  This code is good until December 1st, so even if you have recently placed an order, you have plenty of time to take advantage of the discount.  The discount code is entered in the VERY LAST step of the ordering process, just before your account or card is charged.  Feel free to pass this coupon code on to your friends and family who might want to try our new mixes.

We hope you will give them a try and then, most importantly, send us your feedback.  Also, send us your variations - we would love to hear what you are creating with your FAVOURITE ALMOND FLOUR BAKING MIXES.

Looking forward to your creations,

Jodi & Steven

We've been getting a few e-mails and calls lately from people who are having trouble locating the recipes on our Baking Mix boxes.  The front English panel of each box opens like a book; there is a tab on the right-hand side that you use to lift the panel. We are so sorry if this is confusing - that was not our intention - with the French on the back panel, we just ran out of space and had to come up with a new place to put the recipe/instructions.. In all honesty, we thought (and still think!) that it was fabulous, original, and totally cool...we just didn't count on it being a tad confusing. It will be better marked in the next print-run.
