Baking Powder (Non-Aluminum)
Baking powder is a chemical mixture of baking soda and a dry acid, such as cream of tartar. Baking powder will activate as a leavening agent in baking when a liquid is added to it. It is important to note that many baking powders contain aluminum as the dry acid, but this is toxic to the body and can cause neurological disorders.
When selecting a baking powder, check for “aluminum free” on the label.
