 Yeast cakes I am hoping somebody can help me. I checked out a rather old cookbook from the public library today- something about Soups and Breads. A great many of the bread recipes call for yeast cakes rather than packets or measurements. Are yeast cakes still around? If so, where do I find them? Can I substitute yeast packets? Or measured yeast? Why or why not? I want to become a good bread maker, and some of these recipes were unique and tasty sounding. I just don't want to guess wrong. Thanks for your help. I saw the result today of Challah bread without eggs, and hate looking at sad bread!!! Shimmer

 Yeast cakes are also known as fresh yeast, or compressed yeast. There was a thread not too long ago on this subject. Here it is: http://www.cheftalkcafe.com/cgi-loca...&f=11&t=000155
