Raising agents can include yeast, but not all of them do. Yeast is a biological raising agent that ferments sugars, producing carbon dioxide and causing dough or batter to rise. Other types of raising agents, such as baking powder and baking soda, are chemical leavening agents that create gas through chemical reactions. Therefore, while yeast is a common raising agent, it is just one of several options available for leavening baked goods.

What is the principle behind raising agents?
Raising agents are substances used in baking to produce gas, which causes dough or batter to expand and rise. This process creates a light and airy texture in baked goods. Common raising agents include yeast, baking powder, and baking soda, each functioning through different chemical reactions: yeast ferments sugars to produce carbon dioxide, while baking powder and baking soda release gas when they react with moisture or acidity. The gas bubbles become trapped in the mixture, leading to leavening.
How many raising agents are there?
baking powder baking soda yeast stiffly beaten egg white soda water, lemonade or other carbonated soda drinks
