250 g equates to what in american measurements? Everything else in the recipe is in cups, tsps, Tbsp, etc. Are there alternative pan sizes that could be used? 9 x 5 loaf pan?

Also, I am not sure what the exact measurement for the margarine is. Can you clarify?… cups, tablespoons, etc.

  Yes, I am uncertain of the margarine measurement as well. What exactly is a "pack" of margarine? Is it a cube or the entire box (4 cubes?)
  
  Thanks!

Would it be possible to make this w/coconut oil, instead of vegan margarine? Thanks!
