Five Roses Cookbook


The Five Roses Cook Book was first published in 1913 by Lake of the Woods Milling Company. It is the longest-running recipe collection from a Canadian flour company. The cookbook features Five Roses branded Flour. In 2003, a printed copy of the 1967 edition was produced, with an historical introduction by Elizabeth Driver, a food historian who has written extensively on cookbooks. The original edition had recipes submitted by women in a contest run by the Lake of the Woods Milling Company and cost approximately 40 cents.
