Hain Pure Foods Gluten-Free Featherweight Baking Powder, 8 oz.

We've searched around for a low/no sodium baking powder due to a family member's higher BP, thus lower salt/sodium daily intakes. You would not BELIEVE how much sodium is in a mere pinch of baking powder (de to the base of it, sodium bicarbonate) unless you had a reason to track nutrients, for example, health-related dietary restrictions, or a fitness program/app that you follow to track macros and micros. We did find a few low/no sodium baking powders around on the internet, but they were absurdly over-priced. Not saying that this brand is cheap -- they are all looking to make a huge profit on smaller items (think 100 - 200%) but really, what can one do but "bite the bullet" if you need to remove that sodium burden? We are happy with the Featherweight baking powder performance and have noticed NO adverse effects, no strange tastes, and our quick breads and other items (we bake and cook regularly) have continued to come out just as good as before, but with a whole lot less sodium. Truth be told, we all have to watch/be aware of our sodium intake -- I'd rather free up "hidden" sodium and be able to put a pinch of salt on my food -- and I don't even need to "watch" my sodium. Not yet, anyway. ;-)

I first used this sodium free baking powder to make pancakes. The resulting pancakes were perfect! With that experiment completed I felt more confident to try the leavening in cookies. Again- a perfect result. In the year since I bought this baking powder I have used it in cakes, brownies, biscuits, and many, many, batches of various cookies. I just recently purchased my second container. It is pricey, but so worth it not to break the sodium bank anytime I bake. (If only my experience with the sodium free baking soda I bought on Amazon was as successful. Oh, well.)

So many people need to limit their sodium intake but it’s next to impossible to find products that aren’t high in sodium. After no luck finding sodium-free baking powder in stores, I ordered this item. This product was as advertised and works just as well as normal baking powder. We used it to make low-sodium brownies for a baking contest and they got rave reviews from the judges.

I am on a very low sodium diet to control my blood pressure. I bought the Hain baking powder because it was sodium free unlike other baking powders which are loaded with salt. Up until using the Hain, I have never noticed a difference from one baking powder to another and never thought of them effecting the taste of the food they are in. I made some pancakes with the Hain's, and they not only rose better but they also tasted better. You would have thought the lack of salt would have had the reverse effect on taste but they didn't. The pancakes had a more pleasant taste, a little sweeter but was also tastier in a very subtle way. My wife who puts salt on her salads was the one who first noticed it. The whole experience was a very pleasant surprise.

I love this baking powder. I’ve purchased it several times over the years because it’s the only one I can find without corn starch in it (I have a horrible corn allergy). It’s one of the most expensive options, but it’s been well worth it to eat food with confidence that it won’t hurt me. Despite the great product, however, it’s been a rough experience this time. I received my order on Dec. 9th, and the container says it expires next month on the 12th. Despite being within the return window (and being marked as “returnable” in my account), Amazon will not let me initiate a return or even contact the seller directly. I’m still giving it 4 stars because the product itself works well, but head’s up if you decide to purchase it through Amazon. Also if anyone else is stuck trying to bake without corn and you don’t want to risk buying a nearly expired product, I’ve since learned that you can sub in a combo of baking soda and cream of tartar in place of baking powder. Google it for the ratio- I’ve tried it and it works great. I will probably just start doing that from now on instead of returning to this product after this experience. It’s a slight bit more of a hassle, but at least it’d be fresh 🤷🏼‍♀️

Can't order it; where did it go???. Contains no salt but it worked great and would love to have it again. Amazon was the only place I could find and now gone.

I miss this product. I have looked relentlessly for another no sodium Baking Powder and seems hopeless.

1. It's corn free. 2. It's sodium free. I've used a lot of baking powders in my day, and many of them are loaded with sodium, and this sodium has an inferior taste compared to all natural sea salt. Which is why I like the Hains Baking Powder. Since it's sodium free, you can add your own (or not).
