As an advice let the cake rest for 1/2hr. or 1 hour before baking and it will turn out a much smoother texture to tast.

how much is the measurement for a 'Cup' in proportion to the teaspoon? as i'd like to try the recipe first, with half amount of ingredients, to make sure it turns out right.
So if you could give me the measurements in grams that would be great.
thank you!!
