It has a higher melting point than butter, which in a cupcake makes a tighter crumb. Likewise mixing in the egg whites will give the cake a bit more lift. @Steph: The shortening is actually used in the Vanilla cupcake.

I've never baked a cake with shortening before, how does it differ from those made with butter? The mixing method is a little new to me too, I'm really curious about this recipe and can't wait to try it! All those cupcakes look so cute!
