    "I was completely seduced by this recipe but worried about readers' comments regarding quantities. So I called the Good Food subscriptions department to check the ingredients listed above against those originally published. The charming girl who dealt with my query (thank you) found a copy of the October 2006 magazine and confirmed THERE IS A TYPO IN THE INGREDIENTS ABOVE. Flour - should read 375g (NOT ml) Glacé Ginger - should read 100g (NOT ml) Also, this is a large cake and it doubles in size. In order to avoid spillage which will definitely affect the final result, USE THE CORRECT SIZE CONTAINER and don't fill it more than half-full. As a safeguard, cross-line it with greaseproof paper which protrudes well above the rim. Right, I'm off to clean the bottom of my oven and continue picking at my sadly sunken but deeply delicious cake. "
