Does the pastry taste best when it's hot from the oven?

The answer depends on the type of pastries.  For products of Butterworks, our pastries are best eaten one week after bake. Freshness stays for at least a month with our air tight containers.

 

What exactly is Trans Fat and how it affect me?

Trans fats are a group of fats that cause an increase in dangerous LDL cholesterol and raise the potential for heart disease. Trans Fat are found in hydrogenated oils, eg Margarine. In the process of hydrogenation, the healthier polyunsaturated fats are removed to extend the life of fats in food product. Thus, beware of food that has long expiry time.  It could be the use of Margarine or preservatives.

 

•  Does Butter contains Trans Fat?

Yes, but it's almost negligible when compare to Margarine. 1 tablespoon of butter contains approximately 0.3g, while Margarine contains 3g of the same amount.  Thus, you may see food using butter labelled as 'Trans fat free' because any food less than 0.5g of trans fat per serving may legally place zero trans fat on label.
