thermometers may vary20-40 degrees.

Thetype of margarine will affect bakingperformanc!!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result ff cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled "margaiine" to contain at least 80% fi_t by weight, i,{m_fht spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less ti_t and more water The high moisnu'e content of these spreads afli_ct tile texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old Ire'elite recipes, use maigaiine, butter or stick spreads cant:fining
at least 70% vegetable oil.
