Can I use shortening instead of vegetable oil in a cake mix?

Answer #1

If you’re going to use shortening instead, keep I mind it will make your cake extremely fattening, and you may want to cut back on the amount.

If you have margarine, you can melt it and it would make a better substitution than shortening.

Answer #2

it depends on the cake but generaly yes you can
