can yeast cake be made with baking powder instead? One of my favorite packaged cakes - fruit strip, which to all appearances is a yeast type of cake, lists no yeast, but baking powder as an ingredient.

TR, there must be some leavening in the ingredients that you are missing.

I’m anyway hungry, want to list it off here and we’ll try to be chemists with you?

I don't have enough yeast in the house for both challah and cake, so if I can find a babka type of recipe that uses baking powder instead of yeast, I'm in business. CM, I don't have the package with the ingredients on the label handy, but I think they are flour, sugar, soybean oil, baking powder and the fruit filling, and chopped nuts.
