Bring a touch of Japan to your baking with this premium, ultra-fine rice flour, milled specifically for light and delicate bakes. Sourced from organically grown, aromatic Japanese rice, this special flour is a gluten-free alternative to wheat that delivers a beautifully soft crumb and smooth finish – perfect for your favourite cakes, crepes, pancakes, and cookies.

This product has a Best Before Date of 08/09/2025.

Unlike standard rice flours, this cake-grade komeko is made from a naturally fragrant variety of rice, grown without pesticides or chemical fertilisers by organic farmers in Ishikawa Prefecture, a region known for its clean environment and traditional agricultural methods to give a clean, subtle flavour and a soft, silky texture.

Thanks to its ultra-fine milling, there’s no need to sift this flour before using it – it mixes smoothly into batters and doughs without clumping. This saves time and makes it ideal for everyday use.

Cakes & Pancakes

Use as a direct replacement for plain or cake flour in your favourite recipes. There’s no need to adjust the amount – simply substitute like for like. Because rice flour doesn’t form gluten, your batters will be lighter and may need a little less mixing.

  • For chiffon or sponge cakes, fold it gently into beaten egg whites or batter for maximum lift.
  • In pancakes or crepes, it creates a smooth, lump-free batter.

Cookies

Fantastic for cookies, it produces a crisp edge with a melt-in-the-mouth texture. It is particularly good in shortbread recipes, giving you a gluten free version that holds its shape beautifully.

  • Add almond or vanilla extract to enhance the flavour of the rice base.
  • For extra crunch, bake the cookies for slightly longer at a lower temperature.

For recipes that need a little more structure, such as loaf cakes or muffins, you can combine komeko with other gluten-free flours like almond flour or cornstarch.

Store in a cool, dark place, refrigerate once opened in an airtight container.
