 Posted: Mon May 12, 2008 1:07 pm Post subject: Cheapest price for bulk xanthan gum? |
 |
|
I need to make my yearly buy of bulk xanthan gum. The cheapest place I have found it online is Nature's Flavors. They have it for $39.50 for 5 pounds. Do any of you know of a better price? I've done some searching, but haven't found a better deal yet. THe place I bought it from last year has doubled the price, so I need to find a new source.
Thanks!

Sounds like a good price to me too, but I am always looking for the lowest one. Who knows, maybe someone is a better bargain hunter than me. Naaahhh.....

Here's one. $37.50 for 5 lb.
http://www.naturesflavors.com/product_info.php/products_id/4067
I found one a couple of weeks ago that was even better. About the same price for 5 lbs, but 10 lbs for $68.50. For some reason the link isn't working right now.

I love a good cheap-off. I had no idea I was kicking off a cheapskate throwdown.

I received my last order on 2/7/08. I am almost out now. 5 pounds has lasted me a little over a year. I know it seems like a lot, but I bake bread 2 or three times a week, as well as making the Pamelas Baking Mix Clone. Then there's all the cookies I bake. We eat a lot of cookies....
