Gold and Silver Cake - Alda Jane Low

I unfortunately never met my grandmother, but I am certainly enjoying these recipes.  The recipe says simply flour - I used cake flour but you can use all purpose flour.  If you use cake flour, it will raise more and a 9 x 3 cake pan should be used.  This goes great with butter cream frosting.  Before I hear from my brother, that recipe will follow tomorrow :)
