IS© B aking P owder
The patrons of our first class hotels and restaurants are exact
ing—they demand the best. Women go where the pastry and cakes
are noted for their excellence. Men arc attracted by hot bread and
biscuits—when fresh and moist and light.
The pastry cook with a reputation uses Iv C Baking Powder
because he knows that results are certain; every time everything
is as good as his best.
Then, too, with K C Baking Powder he can mix the various
kinds of batter before the rush of the meal begins and bake as
needed so that every order goes to the table fresh and hot, yet th e
last he bakes are just as good as the first.
The reasons behind these reasons is that K C is
really a blend of two baking powders. One commences
to give off leavening gas as soon as moistened. The
other requires both moisture and heat to make it
active. Dough or batter will remain in a partially
leavened condition for hours, and when put in the oven,
will come up as light as if mixed a moment before.
For cookies, pancakes, doughnuts and the like,
which cannot all be baked at once, K C is indispensa
ble. For all baking the double raise makes doubly certain.
