Crisco Butter Flavor All-Vegetable Shortening Sticks, 20 Ounce, 3 Sticks

This may have been the easiest part of my first pie crust experience. Years ago, a friend of mine's mom would make homemade squirrel pot pies and they were delicious. Her crust was always the highlight and I asked her how she made them. She replied that she used "Fluffo" and it was the secret to the crust. Well... I couldn't find Fluffo so I ordered these Crisco Butter flavored sticks. I wanted to do everything from scratch since I'm a single retired guy and have all kinds of time on my hands. I followed a recipe I found online and spent the morning making crusts. This product was so easy to incorporate into the dry flour, and my end result looked just like the pictures online. It was a little scary and time consuming making the filling, but the pies actually turned out quite well and were very good. I think I'll use the other two sticks on a fruit pie. What the heck... I have the time!

I have been using Crisco for years and the shortening sticks are so convenient and easy to use! Especially since you do not have to use a measuring cup because the individual packaging has guide lines for tablespoons, cups, etc. The butter flavor is rich and adds a lovely butter flavor to the items you are baking. There is no longer a requirement to add water as well, to match butter! Great value as well, since time and convenience are added to the cost breakdown in my opinion!

Easy to use version of a favorite brand of shortening. My youngest sister told me about how much better it is to buy these sticks of Crisco instead of the old style in a can or container. She was so correct! Now I can use Crisco to bake my grandmother’s cookie recipes, knowing they will be soft and more flavorful due to the longtime quality of the Crisco brand, used now for 5 generations in our family.

A must have for homemade cakes.

It's cheaper to purchase of Amazon than the grocery store. Quality good for the price, my go to when I bake
