You're right Kev... but I think there is no ginger. Its just about coffee. Maybe you could add some powdered ginger and let us know?! :-) I added some macadamias as suggested....yum. - 12 Mar 2009
Altered ingredient amounts. I was distracted with the TV and added half a teaspoon of bicarb soda and baking power rather than quarter. No harm done. Also added shredded macadamia nuts, which worked well! - 30 Jan 2009
