¹ since i didn't have cake flour, i substituted it with cornstarch and all-purpose flour. (in 1 cup measuring cup, i placed 1 tbsp. cornstarch and then fill it with all-purpose flour to make 1 cup cake flour.)
² condensed milk was used as the primary sweetener thereby resulting in a buttery cake rich in texture. it added richness to the cake but not at all sweet. (from simply anne's)
