Hi everyone,

 

we have shortening as ingredient list in our cookie. The shortening component is "Canola oil, palm oil and modified Palm oil". I would appreciate if you help me with the manner of declaration. should we declare as "Canola and palm and modified Palm oil shortening" or just "shortening" in our ingredient list

I read that page but at the beginning shortening is exempt from declaration  

Table A: Ingredients Exempt from Component Declaration "shortening" 

but in other table it said that
    shortening or margarine containing coconut oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, peanut oil or cocoa butter "shortening" or "margarine" modified by the common name of the vegetable oil or fat used

 

shortening or margarine containing coconut oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, peanut oil or cocoa butter "shortening" or "margarine" modified by the common name of the vegetable oil or fat used
