So many of you have made that recipe and loved it so much! When a reader recently requested a recipe for a spice cake, I knew that I needed to get to work on creating one.<\/p>\n<p>So what exactly is a spice cake? It&#8217;s essentially a cake that&#8217;s filled with a mixture of different spices, hence the name! It&#8217;s similar in a way to a carrot cake, but without the shredded carrots and typically uses buttermilk to help keep it moist.<\/p>\n<p>This homemade spice cake recipe is filled with four different types of spices for the perfect balance of flavor. This cake is also incredibly simple to throw together. All you have to do is mix up the dry ingredients, mix up the wet ingredients, combine them, and bake it!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22561 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Spice-Cake-Ingredients.jpg?resize=682%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The ingredients needed to make spice cake laid out on a gray surface.\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" data-pin-description=\"This homemade spice cake is easy to make, moist, delicious, and filled with several different spices.

In fact, I&#8217;m sure you have most of the ingredients you will need to make it on hand! Let&#8217;s discuss a few key ingredients and why they&#8217;re important to this recipe.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Spices:&nbsp;<\/strong>When it comes to a good spice cake you need a lot of spices. This recipe uses a mixture of ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong>&nbsp;I tested this cake with a mix of granulated and brown sugar and just brown sugar. The cake with only brown sugar was much more flavorful! I used light brown sugar, but dark brown sugar will work fine too.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oil:<\/strong>&nbsp;I recommend using a neutral flavored oil like canola or vegetable oil. Melted coconut oil would be fine, just make sure all of your other ingredients are at room temperature so that the oil doesn&#8217;t solidify.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Applesauce:&nbsp;<\/strong>Along with the oil, there&#8217;s also some applesauce. I find that only using oil can tend to create a greasy cake that just doesn&#8217;t taste as good. By substituting some of the oil with applesauce, the cake stays moist but doesn&#8217;t end up too oily or greasy. I also recommend using unsweetened applesauce.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Buttermilk:&nbsp;<\/strong>This helps to create a soft, tender crumb and keep the cake moist too. Low-fat or full-fat buttermilk are both fine here. If you don&#8217;t have any on hand, feel free to use my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/how-to-make-buttermilk\/\">buttermilk substitute<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px;

I recommend using two 9-inch round cake pans for a layered cake, the baking time will be 28 to 32 minutes. The frosting in this recipe will be enough for a light layer of frosting, if you prefer more, then increase it by 1.5.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s the best way to store this cake?<\/h3>\n<p>Since this cake has cream cheese in the frosting, I recommend covering it tightly and storing it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I freeze it?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, this cake will freeze well! Once the cake has cooled completely, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. The frosting will also freeze well for up to 3 months. When you are ready to assemble, thaw the cake and frosting to room temperature, then frost it.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22553 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Spice-Cake-2-new.jpg?resize=682%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A side view of the spice cake in the baking pan with a few pieces removed to show the texture of the cake.\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" data-pin-description=\"This homemade spice cake is easy to make, moist, delicious, and filled with several different spices.

Too much flour can lead to a dense cake instead of a light and fluffy one.<\/li>\n<li>When mixing the wet and dry ingredients together, be sure to only mix them until just combined.<\/li>\n<li>If you don&#8217;t have any applesauce on hand, then you can substitute it with an equal amount of plain Greek yogurt or sour cream. Just keep in mind that it will slightly change the texture of the cake and won&#8217;t be quite as soft.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>More Cake Recipes To Try!<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a
