If you do not have cream of tartar, baking powder will work just as well, or better. If the recipe calls for both cream of tartar and baking soda, leave out the soda if you use baking powder - it already has soda in it.

Bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar mixed gives 'baking powder'. It is a leavening agent, used to makes cakes rise. To make baking powder, the ratio is 1:3 parts bicarb to cream of tartar. For a 3 egg sponge cake that is not aerated in any other way, 2-3 teaspoons of baking powder should be enough (assuming plain flour, not self-raising flour).


Can whipping cream substitute condensed milk im pumpkin pie?

Condensed milk is just that, milk that has been reduced in volume (and has added sugar) to about 1/3 the original. Cream on the other hand is milk fat, with no added sugar. For substitutions you will get quite different results in consistency and taste. Evaporated milk has been reduced in volume by 1/2, and has no added sugar. To substitute evaporated milk for condensed milk you need to reduce any other liquids in the recipe to compensate for the extra liquid in the evaporated milk and you will need to add sugar. To substitute cream you will need to reduce any fats in the recipe to compensate for the fat in the cream and again add sugar. You will be better off finding another recipe for pumpkin pie which does not use condensed milk. **Note: whipping cream is typically heavy cream with an added component (sodium caseinate, or carageenan or both, sometimes neither) that aids in maintaining the stiff peaks when whipped. (double cream in the UK is heavier than heavy cream in the US).
