Product Overview

Pure Cream of Tartar is a versatile ingredient widely used in cooking, baking, and various household applications. This 150g container of Pure Cream of Tartar offers convenience and quality for culinary enthusiasts and home cooks.

Cream of Tartar, scientifically known as potassium hydrogen tartrate, is a natural byproduct of winemaking. It is a fine, white powder with acidic properties, making it a key component in stabilizing and leavening agents, especially in baking recipes. When combined with baking soda, Cream of Tartar creates carbon dioxide gas bubbles, resulting in baked goods that rise and have a light, airy texture.
