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.

This is hands down one of my favorite tea cakes. The flavor balance between lemon and ginger is perfect and I really enjoyed the chewiness of the cake itself. Such a delicious sweet treat!
