Does the job, no residual aroma like other brands I’ve tried.

I don't know too many people that know anything about this--and I love the look on their faces when you tell them they are eating ammonia cookies! LOL (Hey, ya gotta have some fun in life, right?). I was brought up on these cookies, so the 'freak factor' of the ammonium carbonate is long gone for me. I use this with a family recipe from the late 1800's as a substitute for the standard sugar cut-out cookie, and the cookies always turn out perfect. And I mean perfect. They are light, airy, yet hold their shape and don't fall apart. Providing you don't roll the dough too thin, you get a substantial cookie (a good 1/4"+ thick) that isn't tough, has visible layers and has an excellent 'crumb'. One bonus is that no one eats the raw dough--so you get to have ALL the cookies baked. Another bonus is that it cleans your oven at the same time! (Kidding!), but I will warn you, DO NOT OPEN that oven door to check on them--the fumes will definitely burn your corneas off. If it has a window in the door, use that. And besides, they cook for such a short period of time, I think you can hold back the anticipation for the 6 minutes they are in the oven. The dough should be flavored (anise or lemon is best), and they must be frosted--either with a buttercream or if you want to get nice and fancy, a royal icing. The dough isn't very sweet, so it gets it sweetness from the frosting. Lorann Oils has the most amazing baking supplies you will be hard pressed to go anywhere else. Yes, they are on the spendy side, but you get what you pay for. Their flavorings--extracts and emulsions--are superb and what professional bakers use. Highly recommend perusing their site and getting your wish list together. PRO: The ammonium carbonate is an amazing leavening agent, and fantastic reactions from people when you tell them they've just bitten into an ammonia cookie; CON: Can't think of any

Product was in good shape and more importantly, has a "best by" date almost three years in the future. I have used this product before, and it is great for ensuring homemade graham crackers and other classic recipes such as pfeffernusse have that special "crunch." The odor is strong but bakes off completely. If you've been on the fence about whether to buy this specialty ingredient, I can confirm it makes a difference.

Product is very good.
