Flour Distributors around Florida
I need an unbleached, high-gluten (high protein) flour (hard red spring wheat) such as GM All-Trumps unbleached or Sir Lancelot. USFoods never has unbleached AT nor Sir Lancelot. There are no mills in Florida that I know of. Has anyone else around Central Florida had this problem?
TIA!!

Ask at a local bakery where they get their flours and ask if they would order for you on their next order.
I entered "flour mills in Florida" and Ardent Mills came up-it is in Tampa. Then there is Honey Comb Bread Bakers in Lakeland,Fl.
Find a local food co-op that has a bulk bin section and see if they would order for you.
Look for a local Amish warehouse/store. Often they sell bulk grains or flours.
Good luck!
I'm in Central FL.Try Sams or Costco. Depending on where you are, try Webstaurant.com. They have an Orlando (I think) Location. There were a few restaurant distributors in Orlando when I lived there. One required a business license and another didn't. Now that I'm on the East coast, there is one supplier I know of in Brevard County, in the Cocoa area. I've never bought from them, but I knew a guy who used to buy cups from them.
If you don't care about bulk, then Publix sells King Arthur All purpose flour and bread flour. I just saw today that they have 10lb bags of the all purpose (not the bread flour).

Edit: You could also try Restaurant Depot, they are in Orlando on Princeton.
