Baking soda is a chemical called sodium bicarbonate. Baking soda is NOT flammable, so it would not catch on fire if heated by a flame. It is quite likely that little bits of the baking soda would go into the flame and cause flashes of bright yellow-orange light.

At high temperatures, baking soda will breakdown into sodium carbonate, water and carbon dioxide:

2NaHCO3 -> Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
