Frequently Asked Questions

Is baking soda the same as baking powder?

No. Baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate and needs an acid to activate. Baking powder contains baking soda plus an acid, so it works on its own. They are not interchangeable in recipes.

Where is baking soda for cleaning?

The same baking soda used for baking works for cleaning. Large boxes for household use may also be in the cleaning or laundry aisle.

Why can I never find baking soda?

The box is small and easy to miss. Look on the middle shelves of the baking aisle near baking powder, not near the flour bags.
