Hard vegan margarine?

Jun 15, 2011 16:44

 I've made croissants before with nuttelex, and they turned out okay but I want to make really good flaky ones and I think the margarine needs to be harder, not a melty spreadable kind. Are there any brands like this in Australia?

I haven't seen a hard margarine.
How did you make them before? I have heard of freezing the margarine then grating it to make croissants.

I rolled it between baking paper and tried to freeze it as a slab. It doesn't work that well though, I ended up basically spreading it onto the dough. I'm using the recipe from The Vegan Lunchbox.

I might try doing a mixture of margarine and copha, that might set a bit firmer.
