If youdecrease 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 fatcontent of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on theother hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor ofbaked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least70% vegetable oil.
