Irlande, nil points!
Been trying out Italian tipo 00 flour which is nice, but I'd also like to try out French flours, just to see whether they make any difference. Problem is ... while I have been able to source tipo 00 in various places here in Ireland, French flour remains elusive.
Ideally I'd be hoping for somewhere in (South) Dublin or North Co. Wicklow that sells French flour, but I'd be happy to travel a bit further afield if needs be.... Just please don't send me to Donegal .... LOL
Or online. Online would work too. Problem is, most online outlets I can find are UK or USA based, and shipping to Ireland is simply exorbitant. It's depressing to find reasonably priced flour online only to find your cost to double, or WORSE, when you look at the shipping. The couple of Irish outlets that I did find online appear to sell only to trade, not individual consumers.
Cheers

If there are local outlets selling French flour to those in the business, see if you can find someone buying the flour and ask if they will sell some to you.

Well, the outlets aren't actually local - but I sent them e-mails; they may supply to a business near me, and then I can go there to buy the stuff :-)
Yeffej makes a good point. Maybe just start asking around at some of the bakeries near you.
