About Hodgson Mill

 

EFFINGHAM, IL - October 12, 2006 - Hodgson Mill, Inc., a leading national producer of all-natural, whole-grain foods, has announced a new addition to their popular line of gourmet baking mixes: Whole Wheat Gingerbread Mix. This is the first and only whole-grain, stone-ground wheat flour gingerbread mix on the market and gives consumers a more nutritious option when baking up delicious gingerbread treats for the holidays and throughout the year. Using 100% USDA Premium grains, this delicious new baking mix is a good source of iron, certified Kosher  Parve, preservative and additive free, and contains no trans fat, artificial colorings or flavorings.

 

Unlike traditional gingerbread mixes which use processed white flours, Hodgson Mill Whole Wheat Gingerbread Mix contains all the wheat germ, bran fiber and nutrients retained with whole-grain foods.  Hodgson Mill slowly grinds the grains on red granite millstones, ensuring the retention of all the essential nutrients and wonderful flavor naturally found in the grain berry. Research shows that a diet rich in whole-grain foods helps to lower cholesterol and blood pressure, and may reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease and diabetes. 

 

“Gingerbread treats are an American tradition, and Hodgson Mill is proud to be the first to offer an all-natural and 100% whole grain version to give families a more healthful and nutritious choice when making delicious gingerbread desserts,” said Paul Kirby, Hodgson Mill Vice President. “We hope our Whole Wheat Gingerbread Mix becomes a new American favorite, and we’ve included a fun and tasty gingerbread bear recipe on the box for families to enjoy creating, decorating, and baking together.”

 

The Hodgson Mill product family includes All-Natural Flours, Corn Meals, Bread Mixes, Muffin Mixes, Hot Cereals, Pastas, Couscous, Yeast, Wheat Bran, Wheat Germ, Milled Flax Seed, and more. Since 1882, Hodgson Mill has applied the “premium quality, nothing added, nothing taken away” philosophy to produce wholesome all-natural whole grain foods. Hodgson Mill distributes its products nationally to mainstream grocery and select natural food stores. Visit the company’s web site at www.HodgsonMill.com or call (800) 347-0105 for information, free recipes and a catalog.
