White Lily Wheat & Almond Flour

We're heading into prime baking season, which means it's time to stock up on flour. We've come to depend on Southern staple White Lily, and its newest blend, Wheat & Almond Flour, lends a lovely nutty flavor and nice texture to quick breads, pies and cookies. What's more, it can replace traditional all-purpose flour cup-for-cup. What makes us even happier? A code on the package lets us trace the domestic wheat to the exact farm where it was grown. $7.99, per 2-pound package. Available at area Kroger locations, kroger.com

Ghost Jerky

We'll pass on jerky that tastes like dry leather. The small-batch jerky from Atlanta-based Ghost Jerky offers the texture of tender steak and in flavors that satisfy our love of serious spice. We're especially loving the added heat of ghost pepper on the terikayi and Korean barbecue versions. $10 per 2.5-ounce package. Order online at ghostjerky.com .
