Use it in the bread machine or in the pan. You just never know when the need to bake may arise! Fleischmann's, a company started by brothers, revolutionized baking by creating a compressed yeast cake in 1868 as an alternative to inconsistent starter and leavener agents. Their Instant Dry Yeast has a finer texture than more granular active dry yeast, so there's no need to mix it with water. Add to other dry ingredients, mix with wet ingredients and follow your recipe. Fleischmann's Instant Dry Yeast will help make bread that is light, fluffy and fully-raised every time. This simple and consistent Instant Dry Yeast can be enjoyed in so many ways. Here are some of our favorite uses for it: -For making airy, chewy pizza dough. -Crafting large soft pretzels, perfect with mustard for a savory snack or a dusting of cinnamon and sugar for a sweet treat. -It can be used in conjunction with gluten-free flours to make breads that are safe for those who avoid gluten. -For baking fluffy Bundt cakes, decadent pull-apart breads and streusel-topped coffee cake.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2025I bake bread all the time and this yeast is by far my favorite. I love that it comes in such a big package and that if I forget I run out I can get it here by the next day. It lasts me a lot longer than buying it from tom thumb. It allows my dough to rise and has a great consistency. I have never had a problem or a bad batch from this yeast. It also last really long and stays good.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2025I recently stocked up on the Fleischmann’s Instant Dry Yeast (16 oz) for my weekly bread and pizza baking, and it hasn’t let me down. This fast-acting yeast mixes right into the dry ingredients—no need to proof—so it simplifies the process. I’ve been making soft sandwich loaves and chewy pizza crusts, and each batch rises beautifully. Bonus: it’s gluten-free and preservative-free, which fits well with our pantry preferences. It works great and has an amazing storage capacity. Additionally, it has a great texture!
It’s also great value. One 16‑ounce bag gives me dozens of loaves, and I store the rest in a sealed container in the fridge where it stays active for months. Compared to sachets, having a bulk supply is more economical—and less wasteful.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2025Purchasing yeast in bulk is the only way to make bread at home cheaper than buying it in the store. The little packages are too expensive. Mine is over a year old and still works great! I've kept it in two pint mason jars in the refrigerator and it has not degraded at all.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2025I gave a review and not a good one but after opening the hard as a brick container, the item was as it should be. So I am correcting my prior review from poor to satisfied.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2025Fleischmann’s Yeast has worked perfectly for all the bread I’ve made so far. I’ve used it with both white and wheat flours, and every loaf has risen well and turned out great. The price is solid too—better than what I usually find in stores. We use it in a bread maker, so its not complicated and easy for us novice bakers to use.
No complaints at all. If you bake regularly, this is a reliable and affordable choice.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2025We have received our favorite yeast -usually we have purchased the same Fleischmann’s brand for Bread Machine. While reading instructions in the package is treated as the one I am used to bake with.
At first thought that something was wrong with the package cause was feeling like a rock was inside 😂 its because the yeast is been packed by a special machine I think - and it’s full of yeast to the top.
I am hoping this yeast version works as good as the one for Bread Machine will update later. No need proofing 👈👍
Edited: same results 💪 same measurements no need to proof just following the instructions of my Bread Machine and the yeast 👍 recommenced.
