Often times, yes, this is a safe substitution. If there is a lot of oil (say 1/2 - 1 cup) it might be better to only substitute half of the oil for applesauce, otherwise it has the potential to interfere with the taste and texture too much.

What can you substitute for vegetable oil in baking cake?

I'm a huge fan of replacing oil with applesauce. If the recipe calls for 1/2 c. of oil, I use 1/2 c. applesauce as a healthy alternative. You will not taste apple regardless of the cake's flavor. If you don't keep applesauce in your home you can also use sour cream, or plain yogurt in the same way. Best of luck! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm!! leaving out the shortening will affect the texture of the cake, I will not say the above answer is wrong but try it on a small cake first.
