With most flours if it doesn't specifically say "cake flour" on the package, then it is not the same as cake flour. But you can substitute plain (not self rising) flour for cake flour. For each cup of cake flour called for in the recipe, use one cup minus two tablespoons plain flour, and sift it at least twice (after measuring). White Lily says you can substitute their flour for "cake flour" without making any changes, and it does not need to be sifted. For more information on White Lily Flour see the related link below.
