What it is

Bleached wheat flour is made from wheat that has been treated with a bleaching agent to make it whiter and softer. This process can involve chemicals like chlorine or benzoyl peroxide. It is a refined grain product.

Why it's used

Bleached wheat flour is commonly used in baked goods like cakes, cookies, and wafers because it creates a lighter texture. Manufacturers use it as a primary structural ingredient in products where a fine crumb and soft texture are desired.

Health notes

Wheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some B vitamins, though the refining process can reduce nutrient content. JECFA has evaluated wheat flour and its components. Concerns about gluten sensitivity and celiac disease are relevant for individuals with these conditions.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Bleached wheat flour contains gluten.
