Bread Flour Measuring FAQs

What makes bread flour heavier per cup than cake flour? ▾

Hard red wheat used in bread flour produces larger, denser starch granules and high gluten-forming proteins.

Can I substitute all-purpose flour for bread flour? ▾

Yes at 1:1 by weight, though your bread will have a slightly softer crumb and slightly less chew.
