Cake N no department of cookery is Royal Baking Powder of more use and im- portance than in making fine cake. Where fewer eggs are used, increase the amount of Royal Baking Powder about one teaspoon for each egg omitted. If an unsalted shortening is used take slightly less and add a small quantity of salt. Sift flour before measuring. The baking of cake is of primary im- portance. Regulate the oven before put- ting materials together. See general sug- gestions, page one.
