High-Ratio Shortening...where To Buy?
Decorating By Chicklets Updated 28 May 2014 , 2:47am by lisawh
i found a very small local cake supply store in the phone book that had mine...i use alpine...
might be too late to answer this but, i ordered mine from here: http://www.eatyourdessertfirst.com/icing_fillings.html
is out of stock, does anyone know a good place to purchase high ratio shortening? Any one used The Baker's Kitchen?
Thanks!
Yes, speedy delivery good price, 1/2 the price I was paying at my local cake store. I paid around $100-120 for 50lb cube delivered. I was paying $10.99 for 3lbs
@ tmcakes is that $79.99 delivered? if so thats way cheaper than the $100+ I just paid.
I ordered a 50# box of Sweetex from Gordons Food Service or GFS lastnight for 71.99. They dont carry it in stock but they ordered it next day for me. Then I remembered this wholesale place today and I called and asked if they sold to the public and they do. They carry it and it was only 67.00 for 50# sweetex. Im also getting a 50 lb. bag of 10X sugar from them for 27.00. Its a local place called Strahlers Foods in Central ohio.
you can also go to www.thebakerskitchen.com
7.99 for 4lbs
79.99 think for 50lbs.
I searched the net a lot on HR Shortening and this is the cheapest if found it, after considering taxes and shipping. Maybe there is a cheaper site though.
Oh, i get ALPINE, but they sell both SWEETEX and ALPINE. Hope this helps.
I never bought here but i saw this place the other day

...i got a 50lb cube for alittle over $43 bucks at a bake store in the phone book...it was alpine...
Hi, I live in Charlotte, NC and there is a Restaurant Depot here that sells 50lbs for $59 plus tax. I do not really need that much so will freeze it. I have not purchased it yet because I was told they were going to get it in 1 lb containers but now they say they will not soooo, I will have to get the 50 lbs.
Walmart has a brand 'Carlina' that, to me, is better than Crisco because of the diffrend fat content, but I still want the Hi Ratio [Sweetex}

I do not think the Sam's here has it in the bakery section because their icing comes to them already made
If you are looking for an online site check out:
http://stovercompany.com/categories/shortening/cake-shortening.html
They are a Pittsburgh base bakery supply distributor that offers a ton of commercial grade products. They offer some of the lowest prices around, and are great to work with.
They are offering Alpine Hi Ratio Shortening for $47 dollars.
ACan anyone tell me if this is a good high ratio shortening. It is the only one I could find in my area. Food max.

I am also in the charlotte area. I only use sweetex to make the icing for my cake dummies. I can let you know the next time i need a box or you can just get some from me. I can split one with you. The only place I get it is restaurant depot also. :)
Can someone tell me where I can get Alpine or Sweetex in the Indiana, Indianapolis- Greenwood area. I do not have a shop, I do cakes out of my home. Thank you for the help
Hello
I live in San Diego and was curious if anyone knows where I can buy bulk hi-ratio shortening...I currently pay $11.00 for 3 lbs of sweeter.....I use a lot because I am in a class...I thought it would be a lot cheaper to buy it in bulk. I do like the taste a lot better than using Crisco...
I have looked on-line seems to me shipping is a lot....would be great if there was somewhere local to pick it up
Thank you in advance
Lisa
