Butter and Oil Fat Equivalent
Compare masses by entered fat content and show the nonfat difference.
Open this toolButter and oil contain different shares of fat. Matching fat mass can reveal why equal ingredient weights are not always equivalent.
Enter both fat percentages and compare the masses needed to match the fat amount. Review the nonfat difference before changing the recipe.

Why use this tool
The comparison keeps fat content separate from ingredient mass, giving you a clearer basis for evaluating a substitution.
Before relying on the result
Matching fat mass is not a guaranteed baking substitution. Nonfat material is not automatically water, and texture and emulsification can differ.
Tool limitations
Matching fat mass is not a guaranteed baking substitution. Nonfat material is not automatically water, and texture and emulsification can differ.
Questions
Does matching fat guarantee the same baking result?
No. Water content, emulsification and texture may differ. Treat the result as a mass comparison rather than a complete substitution rule.
What should I check before using Butter and Oil Fat Equivalent?
Check Original mass, Original fat content and Replacement fat content. Use the exact units shown beside the controls and replace any example values with your own inputs.
