What does shortening do to cake?
Shortening provides rich flavor and pleasing mouth-feel to cake. Different types of shortening, whether butter, solid vegetable shortening, or different oils, will contribute different flavors to the cake. Shortening gets its name from its function in pastry, where fat separates layers of flour, creating tender flakes, making the pastry "short." In cakes, the fat is blended more thoroughly with the flour. This process separates the protein molecules in the flour, coating them with fat and preventing the formation of gluten. This creates a moist, tender "crumb" in cakes, in contrast to bread, in which the chewy texture of gluten is desirable.
