Based on your email perhaps you can help me. I've made this white cake several times per ingedients, but yesterday I decided to use 1/2 c. Lard instead of 1/2c. of Crisco. This is just a basic white cake, but this time it's dry. I was trying to get away from Crisco but now wonder if I had used 1/4 c. of vegetable oil and 1/4 c. of lard would that have made my cake moist. I'm not a health nut, but would like to find a reliable substitute for Partially Hydrogenated. With Kind Regards; Champ
