Jam Foods supplies the small but essential ingredients behind a good bake: bicarbonate of soda, cream of tartar, tartaric acid, citric acid and Epsom salt. Most come in small sachet boxes for home use, with 100g and 500g boxes for heavier use.

Jam Foods baking aids: bicarbonate of soda, cream of tartar and more

Bicarbonate of soda is a raising agent for cakes, scones and biscuits. Cream of tartar stabilises whipped egg whites for meringues and pavlovas. Tartaric acid and citric acid add a sharp, tangy edge to sweets and sherbet, and are used in preserving and sweet making.
