    On the topic of flour, do you baking guru's think it makes a difference if I use No Name Vs. a Brand Name? I am about to make a special cake, and I want it to be delish

    What is the recipe for? Is it for bread? Or a Cake? Thats how I'd look at it. Anchor make flours specific to different recipes. And yes Hard flour is often high protein flour, like bread/pizza flour I have many many flours LOL and I will use my Anchor Bread/Pizza flour as hard flour.

    I use cheapo flour and add an extra teaspoon or so of baking powder, just for the lift. Always get fluffy cakes and scones.
