where do I get the high ratio shortening?
Cake supply shop or the internet? Just look around for the best price and lowest shipping.
I'm happy to share my buttercream recipe, just PM me.
Mine uses crisco and sweetex.

You know I keep hearing everyone say crisco is not working for them. Is yours working fine, cause you blend it with the sweetex?
I use Sweetex. I get it at Cash & Carry. You can use about 1/3 less when you use high ratio.
Crisco wanted to be heart-healthy so they removed the Trans fat in the shortening. Now the frosting slides off the cake. I work for a company that supplies them ingredients and told the sales reps about it. They are considering another change..
Also, if anyone knows where I can buy Hi-ratio in Minneapolis I'd be thrilled!

Sorry that wasn't a question. I've done both, gotten it online and a cake supply shop. Price was still a little less going online...I need to continue to find sources locally.
Google is my friend! lol
I used crisco for years but when they took out hte trans fat. I don't use it any more. now i get high ratio alpine brand from a bakery supply wholesaler. I got lucky having one about 6 miles from me.
The new Crisco has given me a bit of trouble but I tried it with Indydebi's recipe which included adding Drean Whip and it seems to behave a bit better! Very light and fluffy with a beautiful crust. Looking forward to trying CK one day as Edna uses it in her online demo.
