Light Margarine Blend

Light Margarine Blend

Everyday

Light margarine blend is a reduced-fat spread made by emulsifying plant-based oils with water, achieving 30-50% less fat and calories than regular margarine or butter. While it maintains a spreadable texture suitable for toast or vegetables, its higher water content may make it less ideal for high-heat cooking. Many versions are dairy-free and fortified with vitamins, positioning it as a lower-calorie alternative for fat-conscious diets, though some blends contain stabilizers to mimic butter’s consistency.
