Exact cup-to-gram weights for flour, sugar, cocoa, and every baking ingredient. Print it, stick it up, bake with precision.

Store in a cool, dry pantry (under 21 °C / 70 °F) away from direct sunlight.
Use airtight containers to keep humidity out — dry ingredients gain 1–2 % mass in humid air.
Rotate stock: first in, first out, even when the product looks unchanged.
Check best-by dates; potency can fade before the product looks old.

Chill in cooking liquid up to 4 days; freeze in 1–2 cup portions for later use.
