Yes, vegetable shortening can accelerate trace in soapmaking. This is because it contains a higher level of saturated fats and can contribute to a quicker emulsion when combined with lye and water. The presence of these fats can lead to a faster thickening of the soap mixture, which may affect how you can work with the soap before it sets. It's important to monitor the process closely to achieve the desired consistency.
