Buttery pancakes. Sweet, flaky pies. Warm cookies…there’s a reason we call this comfort food—and a disaster is no time to deprive yourself of comfort!
That’s why we strongly recommend plenty of this excellent shortening powder for your long-term food supply. Add just a little water and you’ve got a shortening every bit as good as what you’ll find in the grocery store (except ours lasts up to 10 years)!
Savvy shopper tip
Want to up your baking game? Take a cue from thousands of our happy customers and switch your solid shortening with this powder for day-to-day baking. It’s less hassle to store, super clean, and does the job every bit as well.

Love it
My husband loves using this in replacement of regular shortening. It’s super easy to mix up and doesn’t create clumps in cookies like regular shortening does. And it doesn’t go bad when it’s not all used up.

What Do I Do?
Always great dealing with you. I have ordered several #10 cans of various items. I recently opened your sweet corn to find a completely full can! It was marvelous. This order was for shortening powder. I don’t need it now but based on past experience, I’m sure it’s great! I bought it for the long term storage potential.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Need Smaller Cans on some items.
I think that a # 2 Can of some items would be better, The # 10 can is fine for most things were a # 2 can would be better for items that are not things such as the dehydrated shortning would be better in a # 2 can.
