Question: what is the difference between baking powder and gluten free baking powder?
Answer: Baking powder is made with a combination of baking soda, an acid (cream of tartar) and a starch (to absorb moisture). So is baking powder gluten-free – It depends on the starch the manufacturer uses. This starch can either be gluten-free (made from corn starch) or gluten-full (made from wheat starch).
