How Do Fats Like Butter vs. Oil Change the Final Texture of Cakes?

Fats, like butter and oil, really change the texture of cakes!

Butter:

Adds a rich flavor.
Makes the cake tender and crumbly.
Helps the cake rise nicely when mixed with sugar.

Oil:

Creates a moister cake that feels heavier.
Keeps cakes soft for a longer time since it doesn't harden when it cools down.

Trying out both can lead to some tasty surprises!
