that was what I couldn't find on Googling i.e. smaller amounts and
also unflavoured. Your recipe looks good and easy to use. By baking
soda (and I know we have been through all this) would you mean what I
call bicarbonate of soda, because I have that. Thanks for the info.

It is strictly up to you...I was just trying to provide you with an
alternative to the pricey stuff or if you could not get it but if
you have the money...go for it.
