I made this yesterday for the first time. It is so good! My husband who is not a Spice Cake fan, even liked it. I used Low Fat Buttermilk to cut down on fat. I also used Flaxseed Meal and water as egg substitutes(Vegan eggs) to help boost the nutrition. It came out pretty much perfect and is a new favorite recipe. Thanks for posting it!
