I have a wedding in a few weeks and it is my first wedding cake and also my cousins who share a birthday with me so I want it to be extra special not to mention she is paying me full price for it. The problem is I want to order Hi ratio but all the sites I go to say order at own risk or they don't sell it during summer months. Has anyone ever ordered Hi ratio in the summer and it arrived fine and if so from where. PLEASE HELP ME I AM DESPERATE!!!!! 
I was at the GSA website last week or so and they had a message that they don't ship during the summer months! Hmph. I'll have to check it out again.
okay, now i can't even find it on the GSA website. Can you point me in the right direction?

Could be they decided to remove it - too bad since I order from them seems like every other week. Guess I'll have to go somewhere else for the summer.
I just called around and found it at a local cake supply shop I've never been too....soooo, guess I better get a second job to pay for what's going to happen when I walk into that place! HA!

I couldnt find it either so i emailed Alan and he said they didnt ship it in the summer months, im stuck now dont know where i can get it
hi.... when i order.... i order from chefswarehouse.com..... the shortening comes in 50lb. cube.....i use freezer safe plastic bowls and put this shortening in them and put in freezer..... i also order delicious raspberry jam from them..... it comes in about a 15 lb. bucket... i have a basement and i keep this down there in a very cool area.... hth
You can order it from the bakers kitchen .net (no spaces) for about half the price of shop bakers nook.
icer101 - I just purchased a huge 50lb block from a supplier in my area and I was wondering how I was going to store it - so you can freeze shortening? I guess it's just like freezing butter which I do all the time. Do you just let it come to room temp and it's as good as new? That would be a great option for me - I could just premeasure it all out into seperate containers and then just use what I need little by little and I wouldn't have to sit there and measure it each time I needed to make icing!! What a great idea!!! That would be so helpful to me to just measure the whole thing out and seperate it all at one time instead of doing a little at a time each time I needed it. Because I HATE that part of making the icing....
thanks

www.IntoTheOven.com has both Sweetex and Alpine. I don't see anything about not shipping in the summer. I guess it's at your own risk kind of thing. I love ITO, just can't/don't want to order 50 lbs right now!
