When a cake recipe calls for all purpose flour, baking powder and salt, can you use Self Rising Flour in the place of these other 3 ingredients?

self rising flour has baking soda in it and your recipe will not come out a stated...you can use either for breading or rouxs but not any thing that has to have the exact measurement as in baking...

You can use self rising flour in place of all purpose flour and baking powder, but put the salt in. If it calls for baking powder and baking soda you have to use the baking soda

SOMETIMES you can..... I use SR flour in some of the recipes and not in others.... It's a judgement call I guess

Yes... If you use self rising it has all those added.

No...and I cannot explain the chemistry of it...I tried it once though and it was a sheer disaster.
Don't use it for cookies either.
