A good spice cake can be dressed up with a glaze or an icing, but it should have a soft, plush, and absolutely decadent consistency to its base.
The delicate flavor of carrot cake, which has the same spices you'd find in a plain spice cake, is the perfect match for a delectably creamy and thick cream cheese frosting.
These ingredients will not only complement the trinity of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, but many of them can also be used to enhance the moistness of this cake.
If you want something a little less sweet on top of your cake, or you're opting for a style of cake that doesn't typically come with a frosting layer... try adding a swirl of cream cheese straight to the batter.
