Here is the recipe if you would like to try it. I did change the icing by making an Italian meringue buttercream and when it was combined and whipped I add 1/2 cup of the homemade caramel sauce and beat to combine.

Thanks friends, it really is a nice cake. Lighter and less spicy than a regular spice cake. And I changed the cinnamon icing to caramel because cinnamon and caramel are favorite flavors of his combined. By the way, I should add I allowed the carmel sauce to cool before adding it to the whipped Italian meringue. I also searched but couldn’t find a new flavor of Lindt truffles called Snickerdoodles. Those would have made a nice touch but think they must have sold out during the holidays, so I just used their regular white chocolate truffles.

This cake sounds fantastic!! …. and if I have one complaint it is that technology does not yet allow us to taste via the computer screen :)

Thank you everyone! If you can’t taste through the computer screen you should at least be able to smell the aroma. My kitchen smells so good.

Thank you Donna. I asked my friend for feedback on the cake as this was my first time making it. He said although it was delicious it seemed to get stale quickly. The only thing I can think of that might have caused that is that the cinnamon and sugar glaze may have crystalized and sat on the top of the cake layer rather than soaking into the cake. In making it again I think I will make a simple syrup soaking syrup to brush on the layers before adding the cinnamon/sugar glaze. Otherwise I think it is a very nice cake for flavor and texture.
