Well, there isn't much you can do about it. You might just have to start over. If it was a mixture before adding it to something else, then you mighty be able to just do that over.

What happens when baking powder is used instead of corn starch?
Baking powder is baking soda plus acid, and is used in recipes that don't have acid--acid being what makes baking soda leaven things. I've used baking powder in recipes that call for baking soda, and it didn't hurt them; maybe they were a bit fluffier but that's okay.

Is cornstarch a substitute for borax?
They are certainly not the same thing, but it depends on your purpose if you can substitute them or not! If you are cooking and the recipe calls for baking soda, borax can definitely notbe used! But if you are using baking soda for cleaning, borax is also a good cleaning agent.

Can i use cornstarch in making waffles?
sure, but why do you want to use it. Cornstarch is used as a thickener, and is activated when reaching waters' boiling point. Not sure if this answers your question or not. If I am to guess, you are wanting to substitute the cornstarch for baking soda/baking powder. Again, I may be wrong about why you want to use it. As far as I know, cornstarch doesn't function like baking powder/soda in baking. The two act as leavening agents (creating air bubbles in baked goods), if this is your line of thinking, then cornstarch would not substitute. Hope this helps! Happy cooking, I love waffles!

Yes, in fact, in my grandmother's day, they used a mixture of half cornstarch, half baking soda as a deodorant/antiperspirant. It doesn't irritate the skin and it neutralizes odors.

Can you use cornflower as a substitute for baking soda?
No. Corn starch is usually used as a thickener (for gravies, soups, puddings, etc)., whereas baking soda is used as a puffer-upper for biscuits, cookies and unleavened breads and so on. Use flour as a substitute for corn starch, and baking powder as a substitute for baking soda.
What would you put baking soda in?
Baking soda is a leavening agent and is used in many different types of baked goods. Many cookie recipes call for baking soda rather than baking powder. Recipe's such as Red Velvet Cake and some chocolate cakes also call for baking soda, some along with baking powder, some as the only leavening agent. Baking soda combined with equal amounts of cornstarch and twice as much cream of tartar can be used to replace baking powder. Use about one-quarter the amount of baking soda as the recipe calls for baking powder, and then scale the corn starch and cream of tartar accordingly.
Is baking soda and baking powder one thing?

Can baking soda be used instead of baking powder in a cornbread recipe?
It can be, but only use about half as much baking soda as you would baking powder.Also, baking soda should be mixed with Cream of Tartar to help it work. 2 parts baking soda to 1 part cream of tartar works best. If you don't have cream of tartar, add a little vinegar or lemon juice (not more than 1-2 teaspoons of the juice or vinegar, though, so the taste of the cornbread doesn't change).Cream of tartar, vinegar and lemon juice add acid, which the baking soda reacts with to work best in baking. Baking Powder already has an acidic agent in it, which is why you don't have to add anything extra to that.If your recipe already has some kind of acid in it (which is possible - there are a lot of different cornbread recipes, and some call for acids like lemon juice or vinegar), then you just need to add the baking soda by itself.
