The Ancient Sicilian White Art for Soft and Digestible Desserts
Preserved for centuries in the sun-kissed fields of the island, Maiorca is the white soul of traditional pastry. This ancient soft wheat flour produces doughs with an unmistakable aroma, designed for those seeking lightness, digestibility, and total respect for natural rhythms.
Ingredient Analysis and Taste
- 🌾 Ancient Soft Wheat: Unlike durum wheat, Maiorca is an indigenous soft wheat characterized by a very low protein content (only 8.52g), synonymous with a weak gluten network, perfect for ensuring extreme friability and softness in sweet baked goods.
- 🧑🍳 Stone-Ground: This slow, low-temperature processing method preserves the wheat germ entirely, keeping the vitamin profile and mineral salts intact for superior digestibility compared to refined industrial flours.
- ⚖️ Professional Format: The 1kg pack ensures excellent yield and perfect control of natural moisture (14.5%), ideal for both HoReCa workshops and frequent home baking enthusiasts.

🍷 The Taste Ambassador recommends:
Pay attention to its use in the kitchen! Maiorca has a very low protein value (about 8.5%). This means it is a "very weak" flour, unsuitable for bread making or large leavened products (pizza, panettone), because it cannot form a strong gluten network. But that is exactly its superpower! In the Etna tradition, we use it exclusively for pastry: it is the secret to obtaining the true, friable and bubbly cannolo shell, for shortcrust pastries that melt in your mouth, and for preparing the traditional Sicilian "Biancomangiare".
