Save

I love to bake, so I saved on ingredients by buying the store brand of whole wheat flour, sugar, brown sugar, and baking soda. In the past, I’ve purchased the name brands of these items, but I don’t notice a difference in my baking using the store brands.

  1. It’s really interesting to see what you buy in a week and compare it to our shop. It’s also great to find out the NuVal scores, who knew broccoli was so good for you!
