  • Ive watched a good number of your videos, bought product both thru you and Amazon, but was thinking this afternoon about potential value adds on your website. The one I would really appreciate is a link between a product you sell and the various recipes you have. Simple example, Pear Powder…where have you used it and in what amount(s)? What about this one the Polydextrose? any uses beyond bread browning and also important to note in that use 1-1.5% of flour. thank you for considering. I believe more will use and try greater uses if they know where to look.
