About ounces Cake Flour (ounces)
Ounces of Cake Flour. Measured by US avoirdupois ounce (= 28.349523125 g exactly per NIST SP 811 — distinct from fluid ounce which is a volume unit). Mass-ounce measurement is preferred in US butcher/bakery/professional contexts where precision matters but the recipe uses imperial customary units. Common US baking ingredient packages list both ounces (mass) + grams: a stick of butter = 4 oz = 113 g; a 'pound' of flour = 16 oz = 454 g. CRITICAL: do NOT confuse with the troy ounce (~31.1 g — used only for precious metals) or the fluid ounce (volume unit = 29.57 mL). Cake flour is low-protein wheat flour (6-8% per Swans Down, Softasilk, Bob's Red Mill specs) made from soft red or soft white winter wheat. The low protein content produces minimal gluten development, yielding the tender, fine-crumbed texture required for angel food cakes, chiffon cakes, sponge cakes, devil's food cakes, and the highest-rise box cake mixes. Most US cake flours are bleached with chlorine gas, which oxidizes proteins + starches to further weaken gluten and increase starch absorption (DIY substitute: 1 cup AP flour - 2 tablespoons + 2 tablespoons cornstarch, sifted three times, gives approximate cake-flour behavior). Density ~0.480 g/mL (1 cup = 113-120 g per Swans Down standard). European 'Type 405 fine' or Italian '00 superfine' is the closest equivalent. Brand options: Softasilk (Pillsbury), Swans Down (Reily), King Arthur Cake Flour, Bob's Red Mill Super-Fine. Density: 0.480 g/mL (used to convert volume measurements to mass).
About teaspoons Cake Flour (teaspoons)
Teaspoons of Cake Flour. Measured by US teaspoon (= 5 mL = 1/3 US tablespoon = 1/48 US cup per FDA 21 CFR 101.9). The teaspoon is the standard US measure for small dry ingredients (salt, sugar, baking powder, spices) + small liquid amounts (vanilla extract, lemon juice). Common multiples: 1/4 tsp (1.25 mL), 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL), 1 tsp (5 mL). 'Heaping teaspoon' is informally ~50% more than level (can vary widely). Most US measuring-spoon sets include 1/4, 1/2, 1, and 1 tablespoon (= 3 tsp) increments.
