The EU initiative, “Pure Flour from Europe: your Organic and Sustainable Choice!” is highlighting both sought-after flours at Booth #2267 at the Winter Fancy Food Show in Las Vegas next month from Jan. 15-17, 2023, at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Offerings will include organic soft wheat flour, a favorite of bakers for delicate cakes, bread and pizza, and organic durum wheat semolina, which lends itself perfectly for pasta.
