Baking powder

Baking powder is a dry raising agent used in baking, rather than a food eaten on its own. The data describe samples from the same brand. Per 100g, it provides 38g of carbohydrate and contains 30g of salt, 1130mg of calcium and 8430mg of phosphorus.

Calcium and phosphorus help maintain bones and teeth. However, baking powder is generally used in small quantities as an ingredient, so the amounts consumed depend on the recipe and how much of the finished food is eaten. Its salt content is worth noting for people monitoring salt intake, alongside salt from other ingredients. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
