Wow, thanks fundj.
I nearly bought some in the UK but didn't like the Ingred list. This looks terrific.

I have Wilton's Cake Release which is in a flip top plastic bottle. I use a brush to spread it. I reckon this would work in a pump or squeezie sauce bottle too!@

Thanks fundj and CC!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Thanks Uni
I'm not a big fan of copha, could you use coconut oil?

Coconut oil and butter are both saturated fats with a smoking point of 177 c

Thanks Uni.
It's quite thick.

Might give it a go.
I have unrefined EV coconut oil.

I'll let you know how it goes.

I really don't know Rara. What are you using it for? . I have never used coconut oil  but if this is for lining a cake tin I do 't think it will matter. My mother always used butter for that And the smoking point is the same so......

Why does it have to be in a spray bottle?  If I were using it I think I would just take a tissue or paper towel wet it from the bottle and swipe it around.    Don't know why I am trying to help as I am hopeless at cakes. LOL!

Forgive my ignorance but why would anyone choose to use a hydrogenated oil? Knowing what the science now says about such things?

I am like your mother Gert and use old butter papers for greasing tins.

Droverjess apparently coconut everything is the new black for foodies. It is everywhere. It too shall pass.

Give  me butter from cows . Love them cows.
