Tips:
- Ensure your butter is at room temperature before starting to make it easier to cream with the sugar.
- Freshly grated ginger root will give a more vibrant flavor compared to pre-ground ginger.
- To avoid lumps, sift the flours before mixing them with the other dry ingredients.
- For a more intense ginger flavor, you can increase the amount of grated ginger root.
- If you prefer a sweeter cake, consider increasing the sugar to 1/2 cup (100g).
- Let the cake cool completely before slicing to ensure it holds together well.
- Serve the cake with a drizzle of warm syrup or a dollop of whipped cream for added decadence.
