King Arthur Flour
May 31, 2020
The King Arthur Flour Company has been around since 1790 and started in Boston. It has changed ownership multiple times throughout its long history and is now a 100% employee-owned company. Other interesting facts about the company include its product line of flour, ingredients, baking mixes, and cookbooks (one cookbook won a James Beard Award for Cookbook of the Year in 2003) and that the company is a founding B Corp member meaning it has a commitment to all stakeholders: shareholders, business partners, the community, and the environment.
In the Pacific Northwest, King Arthur Flour operates a baking school at the Washington State University Bread Lab in Skagit Valley (11768 Westar Lane, Burlington, WA 98233). The baking school hosts a variety of classes for professional bakers as well as home bakers. The King Arthur Flour website has a growing selection of resources for bakers including free videos, baking guides, recipes, and their complete class schedule.
Classes range from introductory demonstrations for beginners to intensive week-long courses for baking professionals taught by their expert instructors.
