yes it will curdle. High Ratio Shortening contains emulsifiers that allow it to hold a large amount of liquid without curdling. do NOT substitute regular shortening or butter into a recipe that specifically says High ratio or emulsified shortening.
A high-ratio (hi-ratio) cake is one that has a high ratio of sugar and liquid (usually eggs) to flour. High ratio cakes require a special shortening (called emulsified shortening) containing emulsifying agents to allow the mixture to hold such high amounts of sugar and liquids. Generally speaking, the process of making a high ratio cake includes blending your flour with emulsified shortening, then adding the liquids.
Yes, it contains 100% vegetable fat.
Trex is a fairly well known brand of shortening (in the UK). It seems to work well.
High ratio cakes require a high amount of emulsified shortening because this type of shortening is specifically designed to hold and incorporate more liquid than regular shortening. The emulsifiers in high ratio shortening help to create a stable emulsion with the liquid, resulting in a batter that is smooth and well-mixed. This allows for a lighter texture and better moisture retention in the final cake. Additionally, the increased liquid absorption helps prevent the cake from becoming dry, ensuring a tender crumb.
Shortening is the same as lard, so the ratio is 1:1.
