When making bread, I use bread flour.
The difference between bread flour and cake flour is the gluten content.
Don't confuse with パン粉 usually means breadcrumbs, while 強力粉 is the standard word for high-gluten bread flour, so learners should not confuse the two despite both containing 粉.
強力粉 is a specific high-protein type of 小麦粉 used for bread, so it names a subtype rather than being interchangeable with the general term.
Etymology Compound of 強力 (strong, powerful) and 粉 (flour), referring to the high gluten strength of this flour.
