If I am short 12 gm. of cake flour, what can I use without detriment to the recipe?

That is 0.4 oz. which I think, if you were measuring with a measuring cup instead of

by weight (which IS of course, better and more accurate) you might have that much less. In other words, I don't think it will make any difference. But I suppose you could add a TBS of cornstarch or any other flour that you may have (rice?).

 
Too late for this, but in future, a whole cup weighs 120 grams. So 12 grams isn't much.

You could just add a TBL of regular flour. It's when you have to substitute cup for cup that adjustments need to be made: usually, remove 2 TBL of regular flour from 1 Cup and replace with 2 TBL of corn starch.

For your small amount, it's no big deal.
