Effects on Your Baking

The use of cake flour may subtly alter the flavor of your baked goods. Because it lacks the slight nuttiness and fuller flavor profile of all-purpose flour, the overall taste might seem a bit more neutral. This can allow other flavors, such as vanilla or spices, to stand out more prominently. However, there is no significant change in sweetness or acidity, ensuring the basic flavor profile of your recipe remains largely intact.
