    i baked this just now. I deleted the oil and used applesauce instead. i also used ONLY 4 tablespoons of sugar (48g). after i put the cake in the oven, I waited for 15 minuted before putting 12 to 15 bottled maraschino cherries on the top of the cake and then let it bake til the end! Superrrb! - 5/2/12
