Why Bakers Prefer It
- Crisp & flaky texture: Supports short, tender crumb in biscuits and cookies.

- Consistent plasticity: Smooth creaming; good control over spread.
- Stable in Indian kitchens: Performs well across typical ambient conditions.
- Versatile: Works for wire-cut, hand-cut and rotary-moulded cookie styles.
How to Use (Guidelines)
- Cookies/Biscuits: Start with a 1:1 substitution for butter by weight, then adjust to taste/texture.
- Flour ratio: Many biscuit formulas use 20–30% fat relative to flour (guide only; adjust per recipe).
- Creaming: Cream vanaspati and sugar until light; add liquids gradually for a controllable spread.
Note: Ratios are general bakery guidelines; always adapt to your specific recipe, flour strength and climate.

FAQs — Marvo Pride Vanaspati (800 g)
What is vanaspati and why is it used in biscuits & cookies?
Vanaspati is an edible bakery fat widely used for its ability to create a short, crisp crumb and stable structure. It creams smoothly with sugar, helps manage spread, and gives cookies and biscuits a characteristic snap.
Can I replace butter 1:1 with vanaspati?
Yes, a 1:1 weight substitution is a practical starting point. Expect differences in flavour and spread because butter contains water and milk solids, while vanaspati is purely fat. Adjust sugar, liquid and bake time to dial in your texture.
Is this suitable for cakes or puff pastry?
It’s optimised for biscuits and cookies. Some bakers do use vanaspati in shortcrust and certain laminated applications, but results vary by formula and technique. For cakes, many prefer fats formulated for cake batters.
Does it have a strong smell or taste?
Marvo Pride Vanaspati has a neutral aroma, allowing your cookie flavours—like vanilla, cocoa, spice blends—to come through cleanly.
How should I store it after opening?
Seal tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat. Use clean utensils to avoid introducing moisture or crumbs into the pouch.
Is it vegetarian?
Yes, vanaspati is plant-based and suitable for vegetarian diets.
