Frequently asked questions
Can cream of tartar replace baking soda?
No, it combines with baking soda to create a leavening effect; it is not a leavening agent on its own.

Generally, use 1 to 3 g per 100 g of mixture, adjusting according to the desired function (stabilization, anti-crystallization).
Does it really prevent caramel from crystallizing?
Yes, this is one of its classic uses in confectionery to obtain smooth caramels without recrystallized sugar grains.
