2026-07-09Kitchen Series - Lard Tenderflake
For more than 70 years, Tenderflake Lard has been the preferred choice of bakers. Bunge Tenderflake Lard has long been a staple ingredient in both commercial bakeries and home kitchens. It is renowned for producing exceptionally light, flaky pie crusts and beautifully layered pastries.
Made from premium-quality pork fat, Tenderflake Lard contains no hydrogenated fats. It is a versatile cooking fat that delivers consistent quality and reliable results every time.
Tenderflake Lard offers the following benefits:
- Non-hydrogenated formula: Contains no artificial trans fats, making it a cleaner alternative to chemically hydrogenated shortening.
- Exceptional flakiness: The natural physical properties of lard create distinct layers of fat within the dough. During baking, these layers generate steam, producing the signature light, flaky texture.
- Deodorized option: Bunge's deodorization process gives the lard a neutral taste and aroma, ensuring it won't overpower delicate flavors.
- Versatile cooking fat: While best known for making flaky pie crusts, it is also ideal for frying, baking, and preparing traditional dishes such as meat pies, pastries, and tamales.
Tenderflake Lard has once again partnered with Kar Wah, renewing their collaboration to bring you high-quality, consistently reliable lard. If you haven't tried it yet, now is the perfect time!
