FAQ
- Should I scoop or spoon-and-level Vanilla frosting, ready-to-spread?
- Spoon-and-level for accuracy. Scooping directly from the bag compacts the powder and adds 20–30 g per cup — enough to ruin a tight bake.
- Is it safe to swap Vanilla frosting, ready-to-spread for a similar powder at the same gram weight?
- For structure/mass yes, but leavening strength varies — baking powder is ~3× weaker than baking soda at equal mass. Check the chemistry, not just the weight.
