FAQ

• We are very sorry to those of you outside the United Kingdom that we can’t supply you our mixes, unfortunately due to the huge packing and delivery costs this is not feasible. We can however deliver to all parts of the UK, excluding BFPOs. We cannot deliver to the Republic of Ireland or anywhere else outside of the UK.

• We pack everything in 5’s as stated on our website – under the product itself.
• Please order 1 x 5 x 500g and you will receive 5 packs of the same variety.  If you order 3 x 5 x 500g you will receive 15 packs / 3 cases of 5 fit nicely into our boxes.   The computer is quite correct in confirming you are purchasing 1 case of 5 bread mixes for £5.00 or 5 cake mixes for £8.50 + carriage.

• We aim to deliver within 10 – 15 working days of receipt of order – often this is earlier if goods are ready, milled and in stock.

• We are sometimes asked why our products sometimes cost a little more than the superstores we supply. We make it clear that we cannot compete with the stores, who have very high volume efficient distribution networks. On the other hand with the Internet Shop small orders are packed by hand and because flour is heavy there are high postage and packing costs involved.

• Yes – all our bread and cake mixes work wonderfully in bread making machines. Use the whole 500g pack in your 2lb bread making machine – except Ciabatta – use only half a pack. Select a programme of no more than 3 hours. For cake, simply add oil and water then the cake mix to your bread machine pan and set the machine to the cake programme.

• No, you can use just a baking tray to make any shape bread such as cobs or cobergs, batons, sticks or rolls. Use your grill pan for a great “tear and share” style loaf. Use a terracotta pot but don’t argue about the knobbly bit of bread on the bottom! Cakes work well as individuals in muffin or cake cases and in 2 x 18cm sponge tins

• In most supermarkets – please refer to our stockists page on our web site.

• Two Ciabatta loaves from one pack, 740 g of baked bread from one pack. 10 small rolls from a pack, 3 Focaccia. You will achieve one large cake from a 7 or 8 inch (19cm / 20cm) round tin, achieve a tray bake, a 2lb loaf cake, 12 muffins or 24 cupcakes.

• Yes, measure out 250g of cake or bread mix and the half the water level (oil where applicable). If this is for use in a bread making machine, please take the overall time down for less of the mix. With the remaining mix, please keep this in a sealed canister to maintain freshness. You could freeze half of your baked loaf having used the whole pack, this saves putting the oven on twice.

• Yes let the bread or cake cool, cover with a polythene bag and freeze, no problem.

• No, the vegetable fat used is an un-hydrogenated rape seed oil. In both Wright’s bread and cake mixes. Our packs reflect this fact.

• Wright’s cake mixes require only the addition of oil and water. Wright’s bread mixes require water and a little olive oil in Ciabatta & Focaccia. Whilst they contain all the ingredients you need to make perfect bread or cake, they can also be used as a great base for your own ideas. Why not go to our RECIPE SECTION for ideas.

• If stored in cool, dry conditions – six months from the date it was made. The best before date is stated on the top of the pack. Our mail order usually sends freshest possible product but this may vary from 3 – 6 months.

• This may be caused by using extremely fresh product. Due to the high protein quality of our base flour the volatility of the mix can reduce during storage at the supermarket. Our recipes are designed to suit an average storage period in the shop and very new mixes can be extremely volatile.
• Please check the best before date of the bread mix (on the top of the pack). If it has more than 5 months to go, avoid baking loaves to the full capacity of your machine. So, under these conditions, in a 2lb capacity machine, bake a maximum loaf of 1.5 lbs. and select a rapid or normal programme.
• Please retain the mix you have left in the pack as with every 3 packs purchased you will achieve 4 baked loaves by storing each 150g left over.

• You can’t get fresher from you own oven. Baked bread can keep for 3 – 4 days if stored correctly. Cake can keep for 5 – 7 days. It is best to store your bread in a polythene bag in cooler ambient conditions either in or out of a bread bin. Do not store your bread in the fridge as this can dry out your loaf. A clay pot type of bread bin is the best for storage but it is important to regularly clean the inside to ensure there are no mould spores on the inside surfaces and no residue of crumbs.

• You could ask your supermarket’s Grocery Manager if you could buy a case of 5 mixes which they may supply to you.  We do produce a range of non-yeasted mixes in 12kg.

• All our mixes are suitable for vegetarians.  Please note that Cheddar Cheese & Sundried Tomato and Cheese & Onion – contain whey powder & cheese powder. Ginger, Madeira, Carrot, Chocolate Fudge, Orange & Toffee – all our cake mixes contain skimmed milk powder and whole dried egg.  We are an accredited Nut Free site.  We have Eggless Cake products but are NOT Gluten Free – we are master wheat flour millers so all our products are milled from wheat of which gluten is naturally present.
