About Cake flour
Cake flour is a finely milled, low-protein flour derived from soft wheat, designed specifically for baking delicate pastries and cakes. With a protein content typically ranging between 7-9%, it produces tender and airy textures, as the lower gluten formation results in softer baked goods. Originating from Western cuisine staples, cake flour is commonly used in recipes for layer cakes, cupcakes, and sponge cakes. While it is enriched with essential nutrients such as iron and B vitamins in some countries, cake flour is not considered a particularly nutrient-dense ingredient due to its refinement and limited fiber content. It is also generally bleached to achieve a lighter color and finer texture, though unbleached varieties are available. Used sparingly, cake flour can be part of a balanced diet, but its high carbohydrate content and lack of significant protein or fiber make it better suited for occasional indulgences rather than daily nutritional intake.
