What is softened margarine?

The major difference is in the formulation, specifically the ratio of saturated to unsaturated fats. Hard margarine will have a higher ratio of saturated to unsaturated fat and therefore will be more solid at room temperature. Soft margarine (sometimes called spreadable margarine) will have a lower ratio of saturated to unsaturated fat and therefore will be less solid at room temperature. At high temperatures (think summer with no A/C), soft margarine may start to separate into liquid and solid phases as the unsaturated fats melt and float to the surface.


Is margarine solid liquid or gas?

Margarine is a kind of artificial butter and is formed from the hydrogenation of hydrocarbons.

Is icing a liquid or a solid?

Well, icing often contains dextrose (powdered sugar, which sometimes also contains flour), milk and/or water, shortening and/or margarine, and flavoring. The greases likely would be considered supercooled liquids, milk and/or water is a liquid, and flour is a solid in the form of particulates. So it is a mixture of liquids and solids.
