Is Your Bi-Carb Soda (Baking Soda) Aluminium Free

Aluminium Free Bi-Carb Soda

If you’ve ever wondered whether bi-carb soda is aluminium-free, you’re not alone,  it’s one of the most common questions we receive. The good news is that Honest to Goodness Bi-Carb Soda is 100% pure, natural and aluminium-free baking soda. Unlike some powders that are used for baking that contain aluminium-based additives, our bi-carb soda is made from a single ingredient — sodium bicarbonate — with no fillers, additives, or nasties. It’s the natural choice for baking, cooking, cleaning, and everyday household use.

Why do people ask if bi-carb soda contains aluminium?
There is often confusion between bi-carb soda (baking soda) and baking powder. Some baking powders contain aluminium-based compounds, such as sodium aluminium sulfate, which act as leavening agents. Because of this, many people mistakenly believe that bi-carb soda may also contain aluminium. Don't worry, our bi-carb soda does not, nor does our Aluminium Free Baking Powder

What’s the difference between bi-carb soda and baking powder?
Bi-carb soda (baking soda), when pure is a single, natural ingredient — sodium bicarbonate. Baking powder, on the other hand, is a mix of ingredients (including baking soda) combined with an acid such as cream of tartar and sometimes aluminium-based additives. That’s why you’ll often see “aluminium-free” labels on baking powder, but not usually on pure bi-carb soda.

Can I use aluminium-free bi-carb soda for cooking and cleaning?
Yes! Honest to Goodness Bi-Carb Soda is a versatile, natural product that can be used in baking, cooking, cleaning, deodorising, and personal care. And because it’s naturally aluminium-free, you can use it with confidence in all your favourite recipes and around the home.
