    (1) method for mixing quick breads - muffin method or creaming method (not sure)

    (2) baking powder and quick breads - It produces the same gas that yeast does (carbon dioxide) which makes the bread rise, however, it does it faster then yeast.

    (3) container for flour - sealed glass or plastic container

    (4) same as question 1

    (5) fine textured sugar - powdered sugar ?
