## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used in the same way as allinsons fast acting dried yeast, or does it need to be soaked etc first? thanks.**
A: It works both ways . You can add it to the flour directly or dissolve it in the water you are going to add to the flour . But you don’t need to wait as you have to do with the Allinsons

**Q: Is this Gluten Free? Is it manufactured in a factory that handles gluten?**
A: Not sure.

**Q: is this one suitable for sweet dough, ie., sugar tolerant?**
A: As far as I know for sweets things ( cakes , scones, muffins ) you have to use baking powder .

**Q: Hi, what is the expired date? thanks**
A: I keep the pack in the freezer and take out a small amount for use. That way it keeps indefinitely.
