“Those that contain cream of tartar and tartaric acid (C4H606) create gas rapidly when mixed with baking soda and a liquid. These batters must be cooked quickly or they will go flat. Slower single-acting baking powders are phosphate baking powders that contain either calcium phosphate (Ca3O8P2) or disodium pyrophosphate (H2Na2O7P2). Aluminum sulfate (AI2012S3) powders react more slowly at room temperature but give a bitter taste to the batter.”<ref name="How Products Are Made Volume 6:  Baking Powder">{{cite web |url=http://www.madehow.com/Volume-6/Baking-Powder.html |title=How Products Are Made Volume 6:  Baking Powder |accessdate=2010-09-29 |format=English}}</ref>
 
Double Acting:  A quick acting acid provides an initial rise during the mixing process followed by a second rise when heat is applied. <ref name="How Products Are Made Volume 6:  Baking Powder">{{cite web |url=http://www.madehow.com/Volume-6/Baking-Powder.html |title=How Products Are Made Volume 6:  Baking Powder |accessdate=2010-09-29 |format=English}}</ref>
 
 
== Baking Powder Substitute ==
You can make your own baking powder equivalent at home. Here's a recipe:
 
2 tablespoons cream of tartar
1  tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Mix or whisk the ingredients in a clean dry bowl.  1 teaspoon of the homemade baking powder substitute is equal to a commercially made product. <ref name="Cooks.com Homemade Baking Powder Substitute">{{cite web |url=http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1630,148185-255196,00.htmll |title=Cooks.com Homemade Baking Powder Substitute |accessdate=2010-09-29 |format=English}}</ref>
