== == I have never tried this with butter but it works for substituting for oil You can substitute vegetable oil for butter in a cake, but be aware that some vegetable oils have a strong or savoury flavour that might not be suitable for a cake. Taste the oil first. Also, butter, being a natural animal product, melts at body temperature, giving a luxurious mouth-feel as it melts in your mouth, so this aspect of the pleasant texture of the cake will be lost. Also, butter can be whipped or creamed more easily to incorporate air into the cake and will therefore more easily give a lighter cake than oil.
