    Lovely Ginger Cake. I had my doubts about using Plain Flour and was delighted with the light and smooth texture. We didn't eat the cake for a couple of days and I then lightly toasted slices in the sandwich toaster and spread sparingly with butter. Absolutely delicious!! My family loved it.

    I made this with rice milk/dairy free marg, as my daughter is allergic to cows milk, and it still tastes delicious. Thank you!

    This recipe is not only simple but also tastes way too good.  It looks like I might need to make a second one...to get through the day.  It should come with a warning that eating it can lead to addiction.   Love
