When you choose a conscious and healthy lifestyle, you also want to keep control over the ingredients you use in the kitchen. Many common raising agents contain artificial additives or phosphates, which do not always align with your preference for natural and pure food. Jacob Hooy Cream of Tartar Baking Powder offers the perfect, traditional answer to this. This natural raising agent supports your baking skills in a mild and responsible way, so you can prepare the tastiest, lightest creations for your whole family with peace of mind.

Key benefits

• Natural raising agent: Made from pure cream of tartar (monopotassium tartrate) in combination with sodium bicarbonate, without chemical phosphates.
• Optimal baking result: Gives cakes, pastries, and dough products extra volume and ensures a wonderfully light texture.
• Versatile in use: Easy to mix with regular flour to create your own high-quality self-raising flour.
• Trusted quality: Produced by Jacob Hooy, a renowned brand with centuries of experience in the field of natural ingredients.

How it works

Cream of tartar baking powder works through a natural chemical reaction between the acidic cream of tartar (monopotassium tartrate) and the basic sodium bicarbonate as soon as it comes into contact with moisture and heat. This releases carbon dioxide, which causes the formation of air bubbles in the dough or batter. The added corn starch serves as a stabilizer to prevent this reaction from occurring prematurely in the packaging. This process ensures even and reliable rising power, making your baked goods lighter and airier without any off-flavours.
