This is a wonderful recipe. The suggestion of using blueberries and orange zest was a great idea. I have two suggestions that will give you a lighter cake with out altering the flavor. One is to sift the flour before measuring, then sift the flour again with the dry ingrediants. The next thing is to use yogurt instead of sour cream.

I made this recipe yesterday and added blueberries to the mixture along with the cranberries, I also added a little orange zest. My family loved this cake and asking me to make another bigger one. I would like to compliment on your work of art [Cranberry-Ginger upside down cake].
