Hi Vicki, Self-Rising Flour isn't a great flour to use in yeast bread recipes (which includes baguettes). Yeast is the desired ingredient to make baguettes rise, and Self-Rising Flour contains baking powder (a chemical leavener). We recommend holding out on the baguette making until you can get your hands on some all-purpose flour. You'll be more pleased with the results. Kye@KAF
