    I was wondering if the whole wheat flour in the german chocolate cake could be substituted for regular white flour.Also i have never heard of turbinado sugar what is the difference from regular sugar?

      Yes, the wheat could be substituted for white. Turbinado sugar is raw sugar, you can use brown sugar instead.
