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.

Yes you can :)
no
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.
you add 1 teaspoon of baking powder to every cup of plain flour
9 ounces of self rising flour, as opposed to cake flour or all purpose flour.
in a store
Use a smooth bottomed cake pan and coat it lightly with flour at the bottom, Regular flour not self rising.
Yes, you can use self rising flour to bake a cake. Just leave out any baking soda, baking powder or salt called for in the recipe, as these are already included in self rising flour.
No it Can't Because the Self - Raising Flour Raises the cake or whatever you are making. So unless You Want a flat cake then.... Baking mix can not be substituted for self - raising 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.
