Here's my usual ingredient list

Eggs: Ultra pasteurized, but not organic or range free eggs

 

Milk: Organic

 

Cream Cheese: Full fat, non-organic

 

Butter: Yes real butter, not margarine

 

Shortening: Crisco (Yes, this is needed sometimes to achieve optimal color)

 

Vanilla extract: Real, Not the imitation stuff!

 

Baking Powder: Regular

 

Cake flour: Swan down brand; non-organic

 

Sugar: Domino; non-organic

 

Confectioner’s sugar: non-organic

 

Chocolate: hershey’s milk or dark chocolate.

 

Special orders chocolate: imported bittersweet (55%-65%), dark(65%+) and unsweetened (100%)

Occasionally you may be able to request specialty ingredients, like organic everything, skim anything, aluminum free baking powder, special dark chocolate, Valrhona cocoa, etc. But those are going to cost extra.
