Details

Bake batches of sweet treats to perfection without the trans-fatty acids with this versatile all-purpose shortening cube! Designed to handle the most demanding frying situations, this solid frying shortening is used in numerous general baking applications. Use it to make pound cakes, pie dough, cookies, donuts, breads, icings, and more! It offers a long fry life, less absorption, and maximum performance in every batch. A solid fat made from palm oil, this smooth white shortening is virtually flavorless and odorless. It features a high smoke point for a more pleasant, less-oily tasting surface than food fried in unsaturated fat.

This shortening cube is solid at room temperature and increases the workability of dough. To use, simply add this shortening to your fryer, heat to the desired temperature, and add your raw foods to the hot oil. Your finished product will be lighter, better-looking and better-tasting! It adds brilliantly white color to icings, adds rise to cakes, produces the perfect crisp and crumbly texture for baked goods, and helps form high quality pie crust. Versatile and convenient, this all-purpose shortening cube makes a great addition to your bakery or concession stand, and has the added benefit of being trans fat free!

This 50 lb. cube of shortening is packaged in a bag, which is then packaged in a box.

This is 100 percent palm oil, and great for soap making. I have used 2 boxes so far, and just ordering my third. White, creamy, and very easy to work with! This is perfect for my CP soap making.....and it looks great for other purposes as well.

I do not recommend this shortening. I bought this shortening for the purpose of making american buttercream. Since it had positive reviews for buttercream I gave it a shot. I don’t know if it works good for frying or baking but I know for sure it’s not good for buttercream. It comes crumbly and I heated lightly like the reviews state to make it smooth. The issue begins once you add the confectioners sugar, it becomes a curdled mess, it’s like it fails to emulsify. I’ve wasted several batches of buttercream. I figure I might be able to smooth it on the cake and run a warm spatula to smooth it out but that fails as well. Buttercream made with this shortening can’t be colored because the color separates. I’ve tested it 5 times trying to give it the benefit of the doubt. I even added it to my italian Read More

I am a craft person who makes homemade natural soap. I needed an all vegetable solid shortening to add to my soaps in place of using palm oil. I was a bit unsure of this product at first but this amazing shortening proved me wrong. I added this shortening to my natural soap recipe and it resulted in the most wonderful conditioning bars ever. My friends and other customers just loved the creamy and bubbly soap that I made which has made me very pleased. I've read how all the cooks and bakers enjoyed using this product so I wanted to give it a try on the home craft side of things. I highly recommend this all vegetable shortening to anyone who is a soap maker. Buy it - Try it - you'll be very glad that you did. Thank you for an amazing product at an amazing low price. I'm sold on it. T Zimmerman - Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

I'm not totally sold on this product compared to another brand. I switched because I can no longer get the other brand from my vendor. This is not as smooth as the other brand and I had to paddle it in a bowl while heating it, to get the little bumps to come out.

I love this shortening . I use it for multiple applications . For american butter cream ….I always beat the sugar first with half the amount of liquid plus any flavorings , get it dissolved then add in chunks of fat ( half butter half shortening) beat for awhile then add remaining liquid for desired consistency/texture/flavor. I also use it for deep frying , pie crusts and soap making. It’s a great 100% palm all purpose zero trans fat oil and we are trying to stay away from heavily processed seed oils( canola , soy, grape seed , etc)blended oils and hydrogenated oils. I also bought from webstaurant a heavy duty metal spatula with beveled edges and a wooden handle to help cut out chunks from this block and also my coconut oil in a bucket , it makes getting what I need super easy.

This was shipped fast and arrived just as I expected, a 50 lb solid block of shortening. It's cold here, so dividing it up was a little bit of a challenge as it was brittle. Nice and white, melts easily. Would buy again.

This product is very convenient, for the size. It is an off white color, keep that in mind if using for icing. You do loose a small bit of product, being stuck onto the blue liner bag.

Ive been using this shortening for my buttercream recipe and every time it comes out great. A quick tip for using this shortening is to whip it for about 5-10 minutes before adding the powder sugar to make it smooth and if using butter do the same but make sure you are using room temperature butter or just simply use butter flavoring.

While a big block of Shortening cost more upfront, the price per ounce is a significant savings. This Shortening comes tightly packed and is easily scoop-able and creams well. Plus you won't have to worry about running out to quickly.

Yes this does make awesome buttercreams and do well with baking. However I did notice hard lumps that I had to whip a lot to get smooth once I was about halfway done with the box. Towards the bottom of the box it was smooth again; it was like the whole middle section had lumps in it. Kinda sucked.

I can not believe this price! My previous retailer was almost double, and I could only get the cases of smaller cans. This is much easier, i just put the whole box underneath my work station and work out of it - it's great! The shortening is a little smoother and less substantial than the product I had been using, which is actually great because I just use a little less shortening in my frostings. My cakes and cupcakes still turn out great. Another wonderful thing is that it's pure vegetable shortening, which is surprisingly hard to come by in bulk shortenings. My restaurant caters to a lot of vegan and vegetarian customers, and shortening is a big ingredient here so it's great. My only possible complaint is that I'm about 100 lbs myself, and this being a big 50 lb box made moving it a bit difficult. No worries though, that's what coworkers are for!
