Not sure may be all purpose more akin to cake flour.Bread flour is used for bread stating the obvious but can be used to make many things along the savoury line.

Just asked the Mrs. And she seems to think all purpose is used to make Kanom thsts sweet things.Dave

All purpose flour was/can be used for the baking needs of most kitchens. Baking powder/soda added to same, plus sifting of the flour, can result in flour suitable for bread, cake, pastry, pancake, etc.

Bread Flour - made from hard wheat, high gluten / protein (typically 12-14%)

Cake Flour - made from soft wheat, lowest gluten / protein content; higher starch

All-Purpose - a mixture of both

None is "self-rising" unless stated on package.

Personally I don't understand the need for such a product.

It's not like yeast or baking soda is hard to find. :blink:

What about the "Manitoba" flour, as anyone ever seen this product in Thailand?

Just seen this site about flour in Thailand, the english translation is not specific, or i least i dont think so, perhaps posters partners would like to read the thai version,,
