>I've been using spray cans since I was a wee lad. I have never gotten a Baker's Joy spray can to work. The product mutters and sputters out of the nozzle making it impossible to use it as you fantasize it. I, like you, really wanted it to work. I had dreams of spraying on a beautiful coating of flour and oil and fantastically beautiful cakes but it all came crashing down at the first press of that nozzle. It ought to be called "Baker's Scam." There is no Joy in Bakersville.

It's the only kind of spray that I use and I have never had one give
me trouble. Shake it first, make sure the nozzle is pointing to the
red dot and spray.
