Butter is always reccomended for baking, due to it's low water content (compared to margarine) and better taste. The high fat levels in butter help prevent baked goods from staling. Please see related link. Usually the best butter to use is "French butter", due to it's extra low water content.

It is soft at room temp, which makes it easy when the recipe tells you to cream the butter and sugar together. However apart from that margarine makes fairly bad cakes; no real taste, poor keeping quality etc...
