Abstract

The invention relates to shortening particle compositions that are suitable for use in preparing baked goods such as biscuits, pizza crusts, pot pie crusts, and cinnamon rolls. Typically, the shortening compositions are low in trans fatty acids and in saturated fatty acids. For example, the shortening particle composition may comprise less than about 3% wt. total trans fatty acids and a total of about less than about 61% wt. saturated fatty acids and trans fatty acids.
