I just purchased some high ratio shortening and am wondering how much to use. I use the 1/2 crisco 1/2 butter recipe. Do I use the same amount of high ratio shortening in place of the crisco?
Thanks for your help~

I got mine at a local bakery supply store. I did have to call around though because only 1 of the 3 in my area carries it. It makes a HUGE difference in my icings, they are not greasy at all!

I always use less, I have read several times that you should use less. One of the main recipies I use is 1 cup hi-ratio, 7 cups PC, 2 teaspoons vanilla and 1/2 cup warm water. This turns out perfectly everytime, does not taste greasy at all and crusts very well!
Here's a previous thread on hi-ratio:

FYI, Columbus Foods, after giving me a song and dance didn't come through for me.
However, Sweetex is available through Gordon Food Service!
