This cake was delicious! It went together very quickly and easily. It has all of the things that I love in a spice cake...it was moist, fruity, and spicy. My family gave this 2 thumbs up!! Thanks Donna for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper.

This is the best spice cake! You would never guess it has wheat flour in it. Yum, this is a keeper. I did have to add a little water to the batter, as it did not have enough moisture in the recipe. Should be thick cake batter.
