Double Acting Baking Powder
Double acting baking powder releases carbon dioxide when exposed to moisture and heat, causing doughs and batters to rise. It is all natural and contains no aluminum.

Georgia Pecans (Raw, No Shell)
Fresh as can be, we're not about to mince words over our raw Georgia pecan halves. Our premium pecans are mammoth in size and exquisite in taste. Pecan pie anyone?

Organic Amaranth
The favored grain of the Aztec empire, organic amaranth is a sweet, nutty grain, that is high in protein and gluten-free. It contains high amounts of the important amino acid lysine.

Sea Salt
Fine grain sea salt is obtained by the evaporation of sea water. Known for its great taste and texture, it is the perfect substitute for plain table salt.
