Do DCS’s premixed items, such as pancake mix and bread and roll mix, already contain the leavening ingredient?
No. In all of our years of testing and storing products, one thing is clear. A mixture cannot be stored with the leavening ingredient included. This causes the cans to bulge due to chemical reactions with the product and expanding pressure inside. All premixed products are specifically made with that in mind. Each products label notes which leavening ingredient must be added. We do carry leavening ingredients such as yeast and baking soda which do not cause a problem when canned alone.
