Hi Chumpman,
Double action baking powder contain two leavening actions which give the cake more fluffy and rise higher. I usually use it on steam cake. You can use regular baking powder instead.
What's cream corn and where can you find it??? Thanks :)
Hi Purpledancer,
It is canned cooked corn in creamy style. You can refer to my post under mooncake - Sweet Corn Agar-agar Mooncake. You can buy it from any supermarket.
