Baker's yeast is for use in breads and viennoiseries. It it is incorporated gently into the dough, then you need to wait for it to work.
It should not be confused with baking powder, which is used for raising cakes.
Personally, I frequently practice: 1 dried yeast sachet = 10g fresh yeast, and vice versa.
Note: For each recipe you can use either fresh or dried yeast, use whichever you have to hand.Last modified on: January 19th 2021
