usually the consistency of the oil actually depends on the temperature - if its warm when you buy it, it's liquid :) either is fine. i know things have been very blood orange heavy here the last two weeks, but that’s the problem! please be sure to view my postage options for this item. i was really scared when i saw the fabric! it has a flap in the back to slip on your roller bag as you travel through the airport. beat in the applesauce, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
