What is Baking powederWhy do we use it in cakes?
For cakes and other baked goods to rise, baking powder, a dry chemical leavening ingredient, is used in baking. A combination of baking soda, an acid, and a moisture-absorbing substance, such as corn-starch, makes up this substance. Baking powder reacts with baking soda and acid to create carbon dioxide gas when it is added to a cake mix. It rises and becomes light and fluffy as a result of the trapped gas in the batter. Baking powder is kept dry with the help of the moisture-absorbing ingredient, which delays the premature reaction between the baking soda and acid. Baking powder is frequently used in cakes because it contributes to the light and airy texture that distinguishes a well-made cake. Cakes would be dense and heavy without baking powder, lacking the delicate crumb that is desired in a cake.
