The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). Ifyou decrease
the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if 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.
Federalstandards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand,
contain lessfat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor of bakedgoods. Forbest
resultswith your old favorite recipes,use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
