  1. I will be fixing easter dessert this year calling for all
    purpose white flour. I have a small bag of unbleached white
    flour on hand and was wondering if I could go ahead and use
    this instead of buying bag of white flour which would end up
    getting throwed out as we don't use regular white flour
    maybe once or twice a year. TIA

    Go ahead and use your unbleached flour, it'll be fine.

    They're probably the same thing unless the unbleached has
    other words in its description. It should have a secondary
    description of what kind of flour it is, like "bread flour"
    or "pastry flour" or the like. All-purpose can be either
    bleached or unbleached.

  4. Unbleached white flour IS regular white flour.

    Is the dessert supposed to come out really snowy white? No
    colored ingredients not even egg yolks or vanilla extract
    (except clear)? If so, splurge and get the bleached stuff.
    It'll make a small amount of difference in the looks plus
    it'll be fresh.

    Bleaching flour isn't to whiten it. It's to simulate the
    effects of aging. Freshly milled flour isn't as good as
    either aged or bleached flour.
