    I bought it last week because kept using my expensive butter and thought I'd give it a try. Used it for both Jam tarts and fairy cakes, the pastry came out lovely and the fairy cakes tasted as good as usual.

    I've never noticed it before, I usually use Stork. Is it similar and cheaper? Will give it a go next time if it is.

    I used it in devils food cake (nigella recipe) and it was fab. Then last week discovered my friend has been using it in her buttercream. I was innitially horrified then realised I'd been spending a year wondering why her cupcake looked and tasted better.
    I usually use flora buttery on offer for £1 in cakes or stork at a push. Only use butter in butter cream but no longer...
