8 cups cake flour
In a large bowl, sift together cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
With a pastry blender, two knives, or in the food processor cut in shortening until evenly distributed. Put in a large airtight container. Label. Store in a cool, dry place. Use within 10-12 weeks.
Poster's Notes:
For best results, cut in the shortening so the mix resembles cornmeal.
