ROYAL

BAKING

Two natural fruit acids are used in ROYAL BAKING POWDER, víz: tartaric fruit acid. which may be called»“quick acting" due to the reaction with the base being started by the addition of liquid to the batter; and cream of tartar which may be called "slow acting," its reaction to the base being delayed, until the heat from the oven is felt.

The "double-acting" qualties of ROYAL BAKING POWDER as well as its many other outstanding qualities are the result of fifty years experience by the ROYAL BAKING POWDER COMPANY in the manufacture of the highest quality food products.
