Frequently Asked Questions

How is Doves Farm’s Vitamin C different from yeast?

Both Vitamin C and yeast work the same way, although they are not the same. Vitamin C works as an oxidizer that helps the gluten to strengthen - yeast also gives the dough volume, but through a different chemical process and also by bringing a “yeasty” flavour. Another main difference is that yeast does not extend the shelf life of the bread as Vitamin C does.
