The King Arthur Buttermilk Biscuit Flour blend is being launched by the brand with avid or amateur chefs in mind to help them create restaurant-quality baked goods in minimal time. The product features a blend of real buttermilk along with unbleached wheat flour, baking powder and salt, which combine to create a light texture when prepared. The baking mix comes packaged in a resealable pouch with a three-ingredient recipe listed right on the side to help consumers quickly and easily make use of the product.
VP of Innovation John Henry Siedlecki spoke on the King Arthur Buttermilk Biscuit Flour blend saying, "We're thrilled to bring our Buttermilk Biscuit Flour Blend to Expo West and introduce it alongside our customer-favourite mixes. From our Bread Mix Kits to this new biscuit blend, we're continuing to make baking more accessible – whether by saving time, keeping costs down, or simply making it easier to bake something delicious at home."
