Best Nameless Spice Cake Recipes
NAMELESS SPICE CAKE
This recipe came from my grandmother. It has been the traditional "Birthday" cake in my family since I can remember. The recipe was a contest to name a spice cake in a magazine. This is a very easy and flavorfull spice cake. I have frosted it with cream cheese frosting or baked it in a bundt pan and served it with whipped cream.

EGGLESS, MILKLESS, BUTTERLESS SPICE CAKE
I found this recipe in the newspaper twenty years ago. I was impressed by the author's stories about life in the homefront during WWII so I decided to try this recipe. It was very good even without the allspice.
