Heat treated flour is flour that has been treated with heat in order to improve its baking properties. This treatment usually involves exposing the flour to high temperatures, either through steam injection or by using a hot-air drying process. The resulting product is often referred to as "heat-treated flour" or "HT flour."


Heat-treated flour has several benefits over regular flour. First, it is more resistant to microbial contamination. This means that it is less likely to spoil or become contaminated with bacteria, mold, or other harmful microorganisms. Additionally, heat-treated flour typically has a longer shelf life than regular flour. Finally, heat-treated flour often produces baked goods with a lighter and fluffier texture.


Despite these benefits, heat-treated flour is not without its drawbacks. First, the process of heat-treating flour can damage some of the vitamins and minerals that are present in the grain. Additionally, heat-treated flour may not be suitable for all recipes, as the high temperatures used in the treatment process can alter the properties of the flour. As a result, heat-treated flour should be used with caution and only when absolutely necessary. Enjoy bulk heat treated flour at wholesale pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is heat treated flour?
Heat treated flour is regular flour that has been exposed to high temperatures, either through steam or hot-air drying. This process improves its safety, stability, and performance in certain baking and food production applications.
Why is flour heat treated?
The main purpose is to reduce microbial contamination and extend shelf life. Heating destroys bacteria and mold spores, making it safer for ready-to-eat or no-bake applications like cookie dough, fillings, and coatings.
How does heat treated flour differ from regular flour in baking?
It provides a lighter, fluffier texture in baked goods and offers greater consistency in industrial recipes. However, the heating process can slightly reduce some of the flour’s natural nutrients.
What are the best uses for heat treated flour?
It’s ideal for food manufacturing, especially for products that won’t be fully cooked, such as edible doughs, sauces, and desserts that require microbial safety.
Is heat treated flour available in bulk?
Yes. It’s offered in 50 lb bulk bags, perfect for bakeries, confectioners, and food processors seeking safe, high quality flour for large-scale production.
