Frequently Asked Questions
Does this liquid shortening contain allergens?
Ingredients and allergen information vary by production run, so please read the printed ingredient list and allergen statement on the box you receive. Anyone with a food allergy should check the label carefully before use and consult a healthcare professional if unsure about a specific ingredient.
How should I store the bulk box?
Keep the box in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and close it tightly after each use. A box this size is heavy, so place it on a low, stable shelf. Check the best-by date and storage directions printed on the package.
How is liquid shortening different from cooking oil?
Liquid shortening is a pourable vegetable fat made for frying and pan cooking, so it pours straight from the box with no melting or scooping. Many kitchens use it for fryers and griddles. For temperatures and recommended uses, follow your recipe and read the printed label.
What size is the box and where does it ship from?
Each box holds 17.4 L (4.61 gal) and weighs about 38 lb, so it ships as a Single box only. Because this item is heavy, it is packed individually and no multi-pack options are offered. Orders ship fast from our New Jersey warehouse to customers across the United States and Canada.
