can self raising flour be used instead of baking powder in cupcakes?

I have an australian cookie recipe that calls for self raising flour and I do not have any.. What ratio of baking powder should I add to the regular flour to make it "self raising' Many thanks

I am wanting a copy of the Bero Flour Uk Baking book can you help me obtain this book I live in Melbourne Australia,I am happy to pay the cost of book and postage. Thanks Fiona Howat.

I have a recipe that calls for 1 and a half cups of Bisquick, 1 cup of milk and 2 eggs. I want to substitute the bisquick with corn flour. I need to know how much baking soda to add to the mixture.

In baking what are the differences between baking powder and baking soda? The reason is that one time I used the wrong one in a cake recipe and it did not come out right.

I'm making jam drops with my kids and I only have self raising flour in the pantry can I use it instead of the plain flour and baking powder?
