Actually, both types of flour work quite well. :)
If it is available to you, then self raising flour would be the best option ;)
No, cake flour is much finer, giving cakes light texture. You would be better of substituting regular all purpose flour
it depends on what company flour, your better off sticking withe the cake flour, your cake might go flat if u us e the wrong type
you need all-purpose flour to make a cake. - not bread flour- that is only for bread!
Characteristic of cake flour
To substitute all-purpose flour with cake flour in a cake recipe, use 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of cake flour for every cup of all-purpose flour. This will help make the cake lighter and more tender.
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.
cake flour is another flour greatly sifted
what is cake flour because i havent heard of it or seen it
It is; a better substitution is all purpose flour with 2 tbl cornflour (cornstarch) added per cup of flour used. Also, some cake flours have leavening agents in - you may need to add these to the all-purpose flour.
The main difference between all-purpose flour and cake flour is their protein content. Cake flour has less protein than all-purpose flour, which results in a lighter and more tender cake. Using cake flour can make a cake more delicate and soft, while all-purpose flour can make a cake denser and chewier. The choice of flour can affect the texture and crumb of the cake, so it's important to choose the right flour based on the desired outcome.
To make a delicious red velvet cake using cake flour, follow a standard red velvet cake recipe but substitute all-purpose flour with cake flour. This will result in a lighter and more tender texture for your cake.
yes enriched flour can be substituted for all purpose flour in a cake
