HI:
My name is ROBERT BURNS.
And there is a CAKE RECIPE I'm interested in. It's the recipe for ORANGE CAKE. What I would like to know is, regading the ingredients; where it says, 200g butter, soft, just what does the "g" stand for?
THANK-YOU
ROBERT BURNS


Put in 1/4 cup, etc., not grams.


Sounds great will give it a go and put in the cafe for sale tomorrow. Thanks

Delicious Ambus... I love orange flavors!


I just made this, except I used brown sugar instead of white, and wholemeal self raising flour instead of plain white and baking powder. I also used 2 eggs instead of 4, replaced the other 2 with a bit of milk. so fluffy and delicious! a healthier alternative.
