Caputo Flour in Canada

Chicken Pieces stocks Caputo flour — also sold under the Antimo Caputo name — from a Calgary warehouse. It is not a poultry or meat distributor; the company name is a brand name only. Use the notes below to match an in-stock bag to the job. Protein percentages and W strength are included only where the live product page states them.

Neapolitan pizza and high-heat crusts. Start with Caputo 00 Pizzeria Blue Flour in the 25 kg bag. The product page describes it as an all-natural 00 wheat flour milled in Naples, Italy, for Neapolitan pizza baked in wood-fired, gas or electric ovens at high temperatures. It lists wheat as the only ingredient and does not state a protein percentage or W value, so those figures are not repeated here. A second 25 kg 00 pizza flour, Caputo 00 Pizza Flour (Finest Grade), is also in stock. That page describes a finely milled 00 flour for Neapolitan pizza, calzones, focaccia and fresh pasta, and calls the protein content “moderate” or “low” without a number.

Fresh pasta and gnocchi. Use Caputo 00 Pasta Fresca e Gnocchi Flour in the 25 kg bag. The product page specifies a type 00 soft-wheat flour for fresh egg pasta, potato gnocchi, ravioli, lasagne sheets and cavatelli, and states a protein content of 11.5%–12.5%. That page also notes that the blend is meant to keep fresh dough from oxidizing, and that Pizzeria flour is the better choice for pizza.

Gluten-free pizza, bread and pastry. Caputo Fioreglut in the 5 kg bag is a certified gluten-free blend for Neapolitan-style gluten-free pizza, breads, focaccia, cakes and pastry. The same Fioreglut blend is also listed in 1 kg bags: Caputo Italian Gluten-Free Flour, 1 kg and Caputo Fioreglut Italian Gluten-Free Flour, 1 kg, including 2-pack and 12-bag case options on those pages. Fioreglut contains gluten-free wheat starch. It is not suitable for someone with a wheat allergy. The 5 kg page also lists soy as an allergen.

Pan or Roman-style pizza, and pastry wheat doughs. The current Caputo catalogue does not list a dedicated pan or Roman flour, such as Nuvola, or a Chef’s / Cuoco flour. Those names appear in some search queries, but they are not in the live range, so they are not recommended here. For pastry and gluten-free desserts, use the Fioreglut bags above. For wheat focaccia, the Pizzeria Blue and Finest Grade 00 pages both mention focaccia.

Store Caputo flour in a cool, dry place, away from moisture, and keep bags sealed between uses. The 25 kg Pizzeria Blue page lists a 12-month shelf life from production. The 5 kg Fioreglut page also lists 12 months. The 1 kg Italian gluten-free listing lists 18 months from production. If the kitchen is humid, the Pasta Fresca page recommends transferring flour into airtight bins.

The in-stock range is sold by the bag. The two 1 kg gluten-free listings also offer a 2-pack and a 12-bag case on their product pages. Pallet bag counts are not stated on the live product pages, so they are not estimated here.

Orders ship from Calgary to Canada and the United States. Processing takes 2–3 business days. Transit after that is typically 2–6 business days within Canada and 3–8 business days to the United States; times may vary during peak seasons and to remote locations. The daily cut-off is 10:00 AM MST, Monday to Friday. Shipping is calculated at checkout from live carrier rates.

Free shipping on eligible orders over $199 CAD before tax applies within Canada only. It does not apply to US deliveries. For United States orders, shipping, duties and taxes are displayed at checkout, so you do not receive a duty or brokerage bill on delivery. Prices are in Canadian dollars. The authoritative policy is the shipping page.
