1 yeast cake = fresh cake yeast found in the refrigerated section of the grocery store. Older recipes use cake or fresh yeast because packaged, dehydrated yeast had not yet been invented. But, now you can substitute it with packaged yeast. One (1/4-ounce) yeast packet of active dry yeast OR 1 cake fresh, compressed yeast EQUALS 2- 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast.
