Cakes are typically made from butter, sugar and flour with eggs and a flavoring. There is also a leavening agent of baking soda or baking powder that causes the cake to rise. Baking soda is used where there is an acid ingrediant like lemon juice to activate it. Cakes must be baked shortly after adding the baking soda to the batter or the batter will go flat and your cake will be very thick.
