Has anyone tried making Christmas cake with Pure? Did it turn out ok? I've just made a normal one with butter and it was all I could do not to lick my fingers and the smell is making me drool.

I've made cakes with pure and vitalite. I think vitalite tastes a bit better.

Try using half vitalite and half trex, ie if your recipe is 100g butter, use 50g of each.

Ooh I haven't heard of Trex.. Will look out for it.

my local tesco doesn't stock it sad. Will get some vitalite though.

Vitalite is also cheaper than Pure!

Is it for Dairy free? I have found the hard blocks of Stork margerine work ok too.
