Versatile and convenient, Whirl is a butter-flavoured vegetable oil that can be used as a delicious substitute for butter or margarine in all kinds of cooking – from shallow frying, glazing and roasting, to a recipe ingredient.

Developed especially for foodservice, Whirl is so convenient; it’s pourable, cooks better than butter and won’t spit or scorch at high temperatures. You don’t need to refrigerate Whirl, and it will last for up to 12 months on the shelf.

Whirl is more cost effective than butter and provides that much sought-after buttery taste you don’t get with margarines. You can also use less Whirl than butter or margarine, about 75%, so it’s also significantly cheaper than using the real thing.

Whirl is healthier than butter, it has twice as many monounsaturates and five times more polyunsaturates compared to butter, and has 65% less saturated fat and 90% less trans fats.

Original Whirl is the perfect partner for any dish. Use it to roast, grill, shallow fry, as a recipe or sauce ingredient or simply to glaze a finished meal. The possibilities are endless…

No Added Salt Whirl is a simple, effective, great way to monitor salt levels in cooking or use for desserts such as griddling waffles and crêpes; it has all the great benefits of original Whirl without the added salt.
