Zusammenfassung:Low sodium sponge goods, such as soda crackers, oyster crackers, pretzels, and flavored snack crackers, having a substantially uniform texture and pH throughout, a substantially uniform surface color, a pleasant mouth feel and taste are obtained by replacing at least a part, preferably all, of the sodium bicarbonate conventionally used for leavening with potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate, the molar ratio of potassium carbonate to potassium bicarbonate being from about 85:15 to about 50:50. The potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate are preferably added to the dough as an aqueous solution.
