  • (a) a fabric softening amount of softening composition comprising a fatty alkyl polyglycerol ester softener component having the formula ##STR3## wherein R1 is a C9 to C23 aliphatic acylic hydrocarbyl group, and R2 and R3 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C8 to C24 fatty acyl groups and n is from about 2 to about 4, wherein the crystal melting point of said fatty polyglycerol ester is above about 38°

    C., and wherein the degree of esterification of said polyglycerol ester is from about 0.2 to about 0.6; and

    (b) a dispensing means which provides for release of said softening composition within an automatic laundry dryer at dryer operating temperatures, wherein when said dispensing means is a flexible substrate in a sheet configuration the softening composition is impregnated or coated onto the substrate to provide a weight ratio of softening composition to dry substrate ranging from about 10;
