The type of margarine will affect baking performancet.
Most recipes for bakinghave 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 higherfat product
Recipefailure 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 no6ceable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat byweight. Low fat 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.
