The leavening agents are responsible for causing reactions in the formulation when water, heat, or acids are present. The option of a leavening agent allows for a fast or slow rate of rising action, as well as quick preparation times, making it easier to mass-produce products of the same character. These leavening agents cause baked items to properly inflate without exploding in the oven, resulting in cakes, cookies, and other baked goods. These agents are not required for ammonium bicarbonate. Potassium bicarbonate, a form of leavening agent is a low-sodium substitute for baking soda that can be used in baking.

Baking powders are made out of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and dry acids or acid salts, with starch added for storage stability. At room temperature, single-acting baking powders including tartaric acid or cream of tartar produce carbon dioxide, and mixes including them must be baked right away to avoid losing the majority of the gas. Phosphate-containing slow-acting baking powders release part of it gas at ambient temperature and the part when heated. The most often used type, double-acting baking powder, contains sodium aluminum sulphate and calcium acid phosphate and produces a tiny amount of gas when mixed and the rest when heated.
