Chemical Leavening Agents
• Quick breads are made with chemical leavening agents, principally baking soda and baking powder.
• Breads made with yeast require additional time for fermentation and proofing.
• Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, is an alkaline compound.
• Since baking soda starts leavening immediately, goods must be baked at once.

Chemical Leavening Agents
• Baking powder is a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and one or more acids. Two types exist:– Single acting, like baking soda, needs immediate
baking.– Double acting can sit for a short time without loss of
leavening ability.
• Baking ammonia is also used and adds crispiness, usually to cookies and crackers.
• Chemical leavening agents must be tightly covered when stored.
