Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 I make a line of vegan cookies and am looking to switch my fat to coconut oil. We are looking for a brand that will have little to no flavor impact but still be healthy oil. Our first attempts seem really a bit greasy. We were substituting equal amts of oil by weight for the earth balance margarine that we currently use. Has any one had experience with using coconut oil for commercial baking? Any advice is welcome even if you haven't used it on a commercial scale. Please reply directly to me as I sometimes have trouble keeping up with all the messages on the group!

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hi Janet ! Warm greetings and best wishes for the new year from the Philippines ! The M.Y.San Brand crackers I bought the other day uses coconut oil. For its other biscuits and cookies products, probably the coconut oil is also being used. Try checking from the internet/website.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Janet > I'm sure i've seen catering places that supply coconut oil for the catering industry when i've been searching for other stuff. If you want it with no flavour you want the cheaper stuff. Bruce fife has coconut cookies receipe in his book but surely you want them to taste of coconut, he also uses dessicated coconut in them. He used 3 cups of flour to 11/4 cups of oil plus 1 1/2 grated or shredded coconut, could mean fresh actually not dessicated. > Janet Daum <jdaum@...> wrote: > I make a line of vegan cookies and am looking to switch my fat to coconut > oil. > > We are looking for a brand that will have little to no flavor impact but > still be healthy oil. > > Our first attempts seem really a bit greasy.
