Food Market: Flours
Good news all! We now carry six new types of flour at the Food Market! We even have a few options for those who like to bake gluten-free delights. I hear you can use all eight of these products at Fantine’s Bakery!
Note: Older bags of sugar and flour have been moved from The Bake Stop to the Food Market along with decorating frosting and food coloring.

I think they might have meant gluten-free and not vegan, from my understanding all flours are considered vegan (@Amber ? Maybe you or Ariel have read something else ?)
Sugar, however, can be branded as vegan because of one of the processes sugar goes through (bone char for charcoal to whiten + remove minerals; obviously vegan does not do this). But from an actual ingredients standpoint, sugar is vegan.

The Wizard is clearly desperate for flour, but "There are none of that item in the shops!". :p

@Gloomy This isn’t the last time we’ll be adding to to the various baking groups! <3 You should include your ideas on this Suggestions & Ideas thread about baking. We've been keeping an eye on it for great ideas :)
@Diesel Ariel and I enjoy doing days like this! I think the last big themed day we did was for Arrested Development, ha!

This is awesome, however.. What about the following types of flour being added?
Buckwheat, rice, sweet rice, brown rice, oat, tapioca
These are all very helpful and essential when you have a allergy/intolerance to wheat/gluten, or even Celiac's disease. Other things that would be nice to have would be arrowroot powder, guar gum, xanthan gum, and gluten-free foods/goodies. Though, I could be here all day listing them, so I will not do that for now..

Love it! And VERY glad to hear butter is up next. I'm a huuuge fan of the baking thing but I'm having to hold back at level 6 because butter and vanilla extract (and canola oil, and a couple other things, to a lesser extent) are just too much to keep at it right now.

@Chazezmom Timing has nothing to do with the burning aspect, it’s just a random chance that can happen. Things on your level are a bit harder to cook, but as you get higher up when you go to cook lower level things it’ll be a lot easier (aka less chance of burning the lower level baked goods).

I gave up on cooking...spent 2 million for ingredients and burned them although I was right there on time. I don't get it and don't have time or sp for that

Thank you - very helpful. Your work on the new baking feature is very much appreciated.
Now if I could just afford the butter (and the vanilla extract) I would start seriously baking. Soon, I hope.
