Yes, there are EVOOs that are very neutral, no flavor at all... they
are inexpensive and very good for cooking/baking. The flavorful
(estate) olive oils are quite pricy and some aren't all that good...
spending $20 on a small bottle is a crap shoot. If you want estate
olive oil it's best to visit a shop where you can taste before
buying... but then those olive oils are never used for cooking, heat
ruins/negates the extra virgin designation.

I've never used oil in cakes. I have always used butter.
