Can White Lily flour be used instead of cake flour?

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.

What is the difference between cake flour and all purpose flour?

Cake flour is much finer. Sometimes it is combined with baking powder, so you have to check the box on the brand you buy because you won't need to add the baking powder in the recipe if the brand contains it. Cake flour gives a much lighter texture. If you need to substitute all purpose flour for cake flour, then use 1 cup minus 2 Tbsp. of all purpose flour for every cup of cake flour called for in the recipe.


Is it better to use cake flour when making cake mixes?

A cake mix has sugar, baking powder, salt and flavoring already in it. That would make it very hard to use in replace of just the flour in another recipe. If you have a cake mix, make that cake, following the instructions on the package. Although, you can modify most cake mixes by adding nuts, flavorings, fruit, etc. to it.
