    Really lovely. Nice, light cake. Not overly sweet exept for the icing.
    Looks terrific with the finely chopped red chilli and sprinkled with the ginger.
    Made with my usual substitutions.
    250g SR flour => 250g GF Flour with 2 tspns baking powder
    100g sugar => 30g rice malt syrup, 70g dextrose
    175g butter => 175g coconut oil
    100g ginger tea syrup => 35g buderim ginger cordial and 65g hot water
    In the icing, I just used 2tspns buderim ginger cordial
    and 50g rice malt syrup, 100g dextrose.
    All other ingredients unchanged.
    Nb . I used medium chillis. 2 on a scale of 5 heat.

    Thank-you Jinji.
