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). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give
the same results as with a higher-fat product,
Recipe failure can result ifcakes, 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 "margarine"
to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low4at spreads,
on the other hand, contain less fat and more water.
The high moisture content of these spreads affects the
texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with
your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick
spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
