I've enjoyed using the CK Products 77-326 for a few years, and I've never had a problem with it. I recently ordered and received a different product. I'm not sure why the Celebakes Cake & Icing Shortening was delivered rather than what I ordered. I much prefer the CK Products as it makes a sturdier icing.
***ORIGINAL REVIEW***
In the past I had used a different brand for my frosting, but decided to try this one due to a shipping time crunch. It arrived on time in perfect condition. To my surprise, it made my buttercream frosting super smooth! The taste was spot on, and my piped borders held up beautifully. I was very happy with this purchase!
