Thanks, I'm going to try this.

Just to be clear: "baking soda" is Bicarbonate of soda (aka. bicarb soda, sodium bicarbonate)?

Mix in equal proportions?

It's a dry mix, not with water?

Yes, 50/50. Plain old Arm&Hammer. Dry.

Thanks. I would have thought the large crystals of sugar would be easy for them to differentiate... but perhaps the baking power ia so fine-grained, it coats the sugar.
