Answer to Question 1

Cake flour yields the highest quality cake because it is soft wheat, which is low in protein. Therefore, minimal gluten is formed with cake flour, resulting in a tender, white, high-quality product.

Answer to Question 2

No, sugar substitute is not a satisfactory replacement of sugar. Usage of a sugar substitute modifies the texture and volume of the final product.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
