Why customers choose Nuvantry Pantry

Viva Lard from Coast Packing Co is our all-purpose lard crafted to deliver a traditional, authentic flavor in popular Hispanic dishes. With a long-standing history in the market, Viva Lard has earned trust for its quality, consistency, and performance across kitchens of all sizes. The product comes in a 2.5-pound tub and is formulated with zero trans fats, making it a versatile choice for cooks who value flavor without compromising dietary considerations.

Versatility sits at the heart of Viva Lard. It performs beautifully in everyday cooking, baking, and frying, offering a stable fat that browns and crisps evenly while maintaining rich aroma and a clean finish. Its superior creaming properties can help pastries rise and pastry textures stay tender, while the fat’s robust profile supports traditional cooking methods that rely on a sturdy, flavorful fat.

Flavor and texture take center stage with Viva Lard. When used in bread dough, it contributes to a tender crumb; in pie crusts, it helps achieve flaky, sliceable layers. This quality makes it well suited to classic Hispanic recipes as well as other favorites that benefit from a reliable, flavorful fat. Viva Lard’s fat structure supports balanced browning and a comforting mouthfeel without overwhelming the dish.

Diet-friendly notes: Viva Lard is Keto- and Paleo-friendly, aligning with certain dietary patterns while preserving versatility for a wide range of dishes. It’s designed to integrate smoothly into both traditional and contemporary recipes where a versatile fat is valued.
