FAQ

Should I scoop or spoon-and-level Spices, Cloves, Ground?
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 Spices, Cloves, Ground 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.
