Thetype of margarinewi# affect baking performanceS.
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 h_gher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookbs or candbs are made with low-fat spreads. The Lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
