shortening in one pound. I believe it's 2 cups but someone keeps telling me that solids and liquids are different.
Measuring by volume and weight are two different things.
Which reminds me of the joke: which weighs more - a ton of feathers or a ton of bricks.
A lot of peeps quickly answer bricks (because everyone knows bricks weigh more than feathers)...
But the answer is they both weigh the same - because a ton is a ton - although the volume is vastly different.

My Sweetex weighs the same.
Since I always make double batches of buttercream, I package it up in 14 oz. parcels.
