So I started to make this cake using the reciep from Facebook. On Facebook there was no amountfor heoil , so I went to your site and got the amount. The I made the ber.The Facebook recipe calls for 1/2 cup of orange juice. The batter was too thin I thought. So I checid on your site. There is calls for 2 TBSP of orange juice. I had to throw the batter out. What a wast of time and money. I think you ought to do a better job of checking out recipes. I still have the one I printed from the Facebook link. I can send it to you. I think you owe me for these errors the money I wasted!!!!

In the list of ingredients for the cake, the "oil" amount is missing. Please let me know what this is.
