What if I live abroad and can’t buy Botanical Blend Flour?

If want to bake according to the BALM protocol but you can’t access the flour here in the the UK do not despair!

We encourage people to connect locally and for home bakers to consider buying a mill.  Of corse we appreciate that not everyone can afford mill, of course. Mills are not inexpensive, but if you are able to purchase one,  they are a superb investment. If you are lucky enough to have people who buy you gifts for special occasions, I would encourage you to ask your friends and family to contribute towards one as a collaborative gift.

However we also teach people how make up a Botanical Blend without a mill – here’s how.
