Adding too much raising agent, such as baking powder or baking soda, can lead to overly rapid rising of baked goods, resulting in a collapse or sinking in the center once removed from the oven. This excess can also impart a bitter or unpleasant taste to the final product. Additionally, it may create an undesirable texture, making the baked item crumbly or overly airy rather than light and fluffy.
