Needs baking soda but deliciousNovember 15, 2007By RachelC123
"I made this cake and it was very good!! It disappeared quickly. Halfway through making it, I realized it had no baking soda/powder so I added 2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1 teaspoon baking soda. I also added 1/4 teaspoon of allspice, as it should be included for pumpkin flavor. It was amazing with pumpkin ice cream!!"
