Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knew of a place that sold spices, flour, baking items, etc. by bulk. I thought I remembered a small place in Des Plaines(?) that just had lots of items that you could scoop out what you wanted into bags, and they would be weighed. Anything in southern Lake or northern Cook county would be appreciated. Thanks!

What can I do next?

Hi, there's a place in Evanston on Central Ave called the "Spice House". I know it is still a long way from you, but it might be easier than Des Plaines. Good luck!

Penzy's is GREAT! I know there's one in Naperville, but check their website for other locations. They're prices can't be beat-1/4 of McCormick's.

M., Fishers here in Barrington has every spice, every type of flour and bonus for the kids: every type of candy! It's like an old time store where everything is in jars and you scoop as much as you want. Right on Northwest Highway, open on Sundays too. We love it! Good luck.

There is La Spiceria that is available at farmers markets and by ordering thru them in the winter in Palatine, Just google htem. Also if you don't need organic stuff, The Fisher Nut Store on Nw Hwy on the east edge of Barrington has a TON of spices and baking goods including decor items like nonpareils, colored sugars and sprinkles.
