Cookeen is a block of vegetable oil (also known as shortening in the US) used for making pastry and other baking recipes. It is claimed to be usable straight from the refrigerator.

The Cookeen brand is marketed by Princes limited, a British food producer belonging to Mitsubishi. Cookeen is actually owned by Edible Oils Limited, a joint venture between ADM and Princes limited. The product is produced at a factory in Erith. In October 2006, Cookeen and the other hard vegetable fats manufactured by Edible Oils Limited had the trans fat removed due to health concerns [1].
