White Gingerbread Tea Cake image

A very pretty, light, moist tea cake. IF you use the tube or bundt pan, you can use the center as a flower vase by picking fall flowers, wrapping them in a wet towel and place in the center of the cake. I think this recipe originally came from an old Inn cookbook.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cake turned out perfectly! It was a hit with my family and friends. The only thing I would change is to add a little more ginger, just to give it a bit more of a kick.
