Designed to handle the most demanding frying situations, AAk Oasis donut fry vegetable shortening is the perfect fit for your donut fryer, as well as countless other heavy duty frying applications.

Offering a long fry life and less absorption, AAK Oasis donut fry shortening ensures superior glaze retention. A solid fat made from palm oil, like this, is virtually flavorless and features a high smoke point for a more pleasant, less-oily-tasting surface than food fried in unsaturated fat. Donuts and other culinary creations that are fried in this shortening will have a firm, crisp exterior and a deliciously soft interior!

Superior Frying

With this donut fry shortening, browning is quick and thorough because the hot liquid fat envelops the product during frying. To use, simply add this shortening to your donut fryer, heat to the desired temperature, and add your raw foods to the hot oil. As the food hits the oil, its surface dehydrates, forming a crust that inhibits further oil absorption, while continuing to conduct heat to the interior of the food. Meanwhile, through a series of Maillard reactions, its sugars and proteins break down to create the complex flavor and golden-brown color your customers have come to know and love.

Bulk Supply

This 50 lb. supply of shortening will keep you well stocked for all of your culinary needs! Whether you're pan-frying or deep frying, this AAK Oasis donut fry vegetable shortening is sure to become a staple in your commercial kitchen.

I use this for soap making and it works perfectly. Regular palm oil is a pain to work with - this fry shortening is hydrogenated and doesn’t separate, which is a problem for soap makers.

Buy doughnut fry shortening...you won't regret it. Don't listen to people who tell you to use oils when frying doughnuts. When you fry in oil, the doughnuts absorb much of the oil while frying which makes for heavier and greasier doughnuts. Donut shortening, on the other hand, has much larger molecules which prevents major fat absorption. This causes the donuts to float on the surface of the oil for a prolonged period and shortening has the added benefit of hardening when cool which lends a less greasy after-taste to a donut. A must-have for the donut maker, homemakers included.

Bought this to make mini donuts. The customers love the way they taste coming right out of the hot oil. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a solid shortening.

Not impressed. Have to cook at a higher temp 375 degrees. They are becoming stale quicker than with other oil that I have used. They are rocks by the next morning. I only have 24 hours on the oil currently and it is smoking too much. Going to be tossing almost 80 lbs of the oil and solid is supposed to be better for frying.

Thank you for your review, Robert! We are sorry this product has not worked well for you. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon!

Box was a little beat up when it arrived. Great shortening but poor delivery (took forever to get here) but really great for the products we do.

The Oasis donut fry shortening is terrific and stores very well. The shortening heats up wonderfully and makes a great frying agent for all our sweet shop items.

After trying several different brands of donut fry shortening, this is one of our favorites. Although it is a little harder to scoop out than others we've tried, it has a longer life and a more pleasant smell. We noticed after switching to this shortening that more customers were coming up to our kiosk because they could smell us when they came into the mall.

I just switched from grapeseed oil to this for my doughnuts, and it's made such a difference! They're light and fluffy inside, crisp on the outside. It's difficult to get the shortening out of the container, but once it's out it works like a charm.

The only shortening you should be using to fry your donuts and pastries. The shortening melts fast and produces a crisp flaky pastry every time. No more soggy, greased soaked dough. I love it.

The shortening that we get, Oasis Donut Fry, is the best quality we've used so far. The shortening lasts about 40-50 hours of cooking time before it starts to breakdown and smoke. It is a little harder than other shortening we've used so getting it out of the box isn't as easy. The price and quality is very good.

This is the best fry shortening we have used for our donuts. It doesn't leave a greasy feel or after taste on the donuts. The customers love the way it gives the donuts a little crispy texture on the cake donuts.
