    I am only assuming that it is whole wheat flour -- I currently cook for someone and it has to be gluten-free.

    You are right about the cans for the molds-- I remember my mom using them, too.

    Let me know if you try it and how it works! --Cathy

    Is entire Whet Flour - whole wheat flour? Also, what kind of molds do you use? I think my grandmother used empty vegetable cans or tins.... I love this and want to make it this fall.
