“The secret to soft cookies and soda bread.”
A raising agent that requires acid
Baking soda is not baking powder: it only makes dough rise in the presence of an acidic ingredient, such as buttermilk, yogurt, honey, molasses, or brown sugar. This is why English recipes specify it separately. Dr Oetker 's Bicarbonate of Soda is measured by the spoonful, in small quantities, and works as soon as it is moistened.
From gingerbread to soda bread
It's essential for gingerbread, Yorkshire parkin, soft cookies, sticky toffee pudding, or Irish soda bread, which rises without baker's yeast. Our tip: bake your dough quickly after mixing it, as the reaction begins as soon as it comes into contact with the liquid, and be sure to use the correct amount; too much will give a soapy taste.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
What is golden syrup?
It's a smooth, golden sugar syrup with a subtle caramel flavor, emblematic of British baking. Lyle's golden syrup, in its famous green and gold tin, has been around since 1883. It's used for flapjacks, treacle tart, or drizzled over pancakes and porridge.
What is black treacle?
It's a thick, intense black molasses with notes of licorice and burnt caramel. It gives gingerbread, Christmas cake, and some puddings their color and rich flavor. Just a few spoonfuls are enough.
How to prepare a homemade afternoon tea ?
You'll need warm scones , served with jam and cream, small sandwiches (cucumber, egg mayonnaise, etc.), a few pastries, and of course, a pot of black tea. A scones mix, like Green's , will make them perfect in just a few minutes.
What is English "jelly"?
In the UK, "jelly" doesn't refer to jam, but to a brightly colored fruit dessert made from cubes or powder. A staple of children's afternoon snacks, it's also layered in trifles with custard and cream. Hartley's is the leading brand.
How do I use a cake mix?
It's very simple: you usually just need to add eggs, oil or butter, and a little water, as indicated on the packaging, then bake. Brownies, muffins, cupcakes, or red velvet cakes are ready in no time, with results worthy of a coffee shop.
What is suet?
This is a fat used in traditional British cuisine for dumplings, steamed puddings, Christmas pudding , and mince pies pastry. It gives a soft and light texture. Atora offers a plant-based version in small, ready-to-use strands.
What does anti-waste mean at Candy Dukes ?
At Candy Dukes , nothing goes to waste. Products nearing or past their best-before date are offered at reduced prices, up to 80% off. You get a great deal, and a perfectly good product doesn't end up in the bin. A small step for the planet, and a big treat for those with a sweet tooth.
What is the difference between a DDM and a DLC?
The "use by" date applies to fresh products, such as meat or dairy: once this date has passed, they should no longer be consumed. The "best before" date applies to grocery products: sweets, biscuits, teas, canned goods, sauces, etc. After this date, the product remains safe to eat. Only its quality may change slightly. To reduce food waste, we only offer products with a "best before" date, never with a "use by" date.
