I've never used a cake flour - as a child of the 60's and all things natural, I could never get past the concept of bleached flour. When I saw this in the KAF website this past Sunday night, actually looking for cake flour at the request of himself (who is also a pretty mean cook/baker), I thought, "How could I have missed this in the past?" One thing and another happened that night and I never did place the order with the unbleached cake flour.
What would I do with a free box of unbleached cake flour? I would bake a cake for himself (Geoffrey) as he has a birthday coming up and the last nine months have been rather difficult for him - he deserves a special birthday cake made with lotsa love and unbleached cake flour. It would be a BIG cake with heaps of buttercream frosting so there would be plenty left over to put in the freezer so he could eat frozen birthday cake for months - he has this thing for frozen birthday cake with frosting. He'd probably appreciate the frozen cake more than the fresh cake - I don't quite understand it but, hey, we bake what our loved ones want, not just what we want to bake.
