This discussion suggests....

A 12" needs 1lb 12oz flour, 1lb 10oz butter, 1lb 10oz sugar & 13 eggs.

According to Delia, square tins hold approximately 25% more than a round of the same size.

So after a few trial and errors, this is the one that finally worked out for me, 700g self raising flour, 500g sugar, 500g butter and 10 eggs.
