Hello,

I'm wondering about yeast.  Some recipes I have call for dry yeast, and some
call for cake yeast.  For those of you familiar with the cake yeast, please
tell me about it.  It's available nearby, but I'm wondering if it has any
specific advantages that make up for the short shelf life.  I usually use
SAF instant yeast and have always been happy with it, but I figured cake
yeast wouldn't keep coming up in recipes if it didn't have some benefits.

Thanks,
Erin Nesmith
