Tala Originals Plain Flour Storage Tin, White-Red, 18.5L X 9W X 12H cm

Product Information

It has a seal around the lid making it airtight and it holds a large size bag of flour (1.5kg) with some room to spare. It’s made of metal and has a square footprint making it space efficient on the shelf or worktop. The measurements are 16cm x 11.5cm x 20cm. It’s made of metal, which I would say is a little flimsy, but not overly so and m easures 24cm x 17.5cm x 9.5cm. You can safely fit a large 1.5kg bag of flour inside or probably 2 of the 1kg bags of flour. It’s also airtight so if you’re worried about weevils or other nasties it’s perfect. I really like the look of this one and would be great if you buy in bulk like a lot of people are doing lately. The size of this one is 3.25L which equates to holding a 1.5kg bag of flour with some room to spare at the top for the scoop. It’s measurements are 23.4 x 16.2 x 10.6 cm.

If the McDougall’s tin isn’t available then this one is a similar style and could be a good alternative. Tala do excellent quality kitchenware and so this tin is another in that range. Here’s a beautiful and simple glass jar that is great for storing flour in especially if you’re trying to cut down on the plastic in your household. It’s big and it’s heavy but that’s to be expected with a glass container. It would look lovely on the work surface though and is perfect if you’re looking for a large flour storage container. What I like is that it has some castors on the bottom so can be rolled out from your pantry or storage area when you need it. It comes with a scoop too for easy access to the flour.It’s made of BPA and phthalate free plastic and is a good design that will fit neatly in to cupboards with a sculptured hand grip for easy use grabbing. The Klip It feature allows the container to seal extremely tightly. It’s ok to go in the dishwasher too which is great. Finally, we have this really elegant bulk storage option from Simplehuman. If you are looking for a long term storage solution for your flour that looks good, will last and will also keep your flour in tip top condition this is the one for you. It is on the more expensive side, but as an investment for someone who is going to use it daily I think it’s well worth it. If you’re not too bothered about keeping your flour out on show and would like a nice simple and effective container then this one from Sistema is a good buy. It’s good value and you also get a scoop with it which is helpful when dispensing the flour. The lid has a hinge which is a nice touch and you can of course just keep the bag of flour inside or decant it into it.

The storage bin is made from stainless steel with a fingerprint-proof finish which will ensure it stays looking good at all times. It has wheels at the bottom making it easy to move and it’s slim design means that you can probably store it easily in your kitchen (and it will look good even if it stays out on show!). I love that it has a scoop incorporated which attaches with a magnet to the inside of the lid – a nice touch so you don’t lose it. The size of this one again is more than big enough to hold a large bag of flour (1.5kg) and is 4.2L. The dimensions are 16cm x 16cm x 24cm. Here we have an option for people who are serious about storing a decent amount of flour at once. It’s a really good size bin that’s not too big I don’t feel, but still can store a good amount of flour. Another flour container that would look fabulous out on show is this one from KitchenCraft. It’s got a really fun and vintage or retro feel to it and it complements a whole heap of other storage containers in the range. They have coffee, tea and sugar caddies too – it would definitely brighten up a kitchen or pantry!
