Trends can be challenging. It can be quite difficult to replace sodium based leavening acids and retain full functionality. The same applies to the removal of gluten or the addition of other ingredients.

Yeast fermentation takes time. Chemical leavening is much faster. It is very versatile and lends itself to both lean and rich formulas as well use in bakery mixes, refrigerated and frozen doughs, and baked goods for retail and food service. One must consider the length of time for each step, from the point of mixing the ingredients to finished product coming out of the oven. Think about when you want the gas produced and what is the situation.
