This is a 20KG unit, 1 unit/case, of Canadian-made all-purpose dry batter mix from Ardent Mills.

This 20KG bulk bag earns its shelf space in any kitchen that runs a fryer hard. The powder is neutral and fine, so it doesn't fight whatever you're coating. It just crisps up evenly and lets the protein or vegetable do the talking. If you're doing fish and chips downtown, you know the drill: consistent browning across hundreds of portions, less waste, no complaints about soggy bits.
Ardent Mills Batter Mix | 20KG/Unit, 1 Unit/Case: Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service
This mix is made for the pace of a commercial kitchen. The flavour is neutral with just a hint of savoury, so it works for fried chicken one day and tempura vegetables the next. You won't need three different specialty batters taking up dry storage. One bag does the job, and the results are repeatable.
Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide, all 10 provinces and 3 territories, in 2-5 business days.
"I've watched institutional kitchens rip through cases of this on fish-and-chips Fridays. The 20KG bag cuts down mid-shift restocks, which matters when you're short-handed. For events expecting over 500 meals, I usually tell buyers to grab two units. It keeps the line moving and the prep team calm."
Consistency is what keeps a kitchen running, and that's what this 20KG bag delivers. Caterers and restaurants get the same crisp result batch after batch. It's one less variable to worry about during a busy Stampede rush or a steady institutional service.

Quality & Specifications
The mix is a fine dry powder that turns into a smooth liquid batter with water. Fry it and you get a golden, crispy shell with a solid crunch. The blend of enriched wheat flour, corn flour, baking powder, salt, and dextrose gives it a mild savoury note that won't cover up your main ingredient.
Professional Applications
This is a workhorse batter. Use it for fish and chips, fried chicken, pork cutlets, or fruit fritters with apple or banana. It also handles tempura-style vegetables, onion rings, and fried pickles without complaint. One mix, a whole fry menu.
Storage & Handling
Keep the 20KG bag in a cool, dry spot, sealed in its original packaging or a proper container. Once you add water, use it within a couple of hours for the best crunch and food safety. Check the best-before date on the bag for the shelf life of the dry mix.
Canadian Sourcing
