If you do a great deal of baking these big wide mouth flour canisters are ideal as they store large quantities and allow easy access with a cup for decanting when you want to bake.
If you have limited space, for example in the situation where your kitchen is small, and you need to store a fair amount of baking ingredients, then it is best to use a big storage container. Why? Well, one big storage jar will take up less space on your shelf compared with several smaller ones. Big jars might not be as visually appealing as the smaller more decorative types - but they are there to do a job - and for the most part are not on show in the kitchen, being stored away in a cool pantry or in a kitchen unit.
The benefit of big containers like these is that they have a large opening which is handy if you want to remove something like a cup at a time. Storage vessels with small openings are a bit of a pain. It takes too long to get what you need out and also it can become messy!
These jars are made in many different materials so you can match them up with the style of your kitchen decor. I have selected 10 products to illustrate the variety of materials they are made from.
