Self-rising flour has soda in it. All Purpose is basic flour, so you'd have to add soda to it. Cake Flour has been milled finer than the other two, so neither of these would make good cake flour.
Cake flour is a finer grained powder than all purpose. Self rising means it already has the baking powder added. All purpose may be used for either, but you would have to add baking powder, and the end product would not be quite as delicate.
9 ounces of self rising flour, as opposed to cake flour or all purpose flour.
Yes you can :)
no
yes enriched flour can be substituted for all purpose flour in a cake
No it is not. I was looking for a non self-rising cake flour and Softasilk does not contain salt or carbonate products to make it self rising.
Plain flour, which I also use to replace cake flour (although cake flour would be lower in gluten than our plain flour, but we don't have an exact equivalent.)
Yes. All-purpose flour and unbleached flour are usually the same thing. Just be sure that the package doesn't say something like 'self rising', 'bread flour', or 'cake flour' - those ARE NOT all-purpose flour.
Short answer: NO. they are not the same. Do NOT use one for the other. I was trying out a new peach cobbler recipe. It called for self-rising flour. I found the definition for self-rising flour which is basically flour with some type of rising agent (usually baking powder) in it. That is what I thought cake flour was -- flour with baking powder. When i made the recipe using the cake flour, the cobbler did not turn out/did not rise. Therefore, I would not use cake flour in place of self=rising flour again. Use 1 cup regular flour minus 2 teaspoons. Add 1 and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt to equal 1 cup.
not sure 2nd Answer: You can use self-rising cake flour . . . it is a finer powder that plain self-rising flour, though, so you may have to add a wee bit more liquid to the batter.
Brodie makes a self-rising flour specifically for cakes and pastries. The major difference between all-purpose flour and cake and pastry flour is that one is finer and because you do not need the same amount of gluten in cakes it can produce a finer lighter cake. Good luck!
All purpose flour cannot be converted into cake flour. They are two different types of flour that are milled (ground) differently from different types of wheat. Cake flour is lighter, finer and has less gluten than all-purpose flour.
