Quick and Easy Pumpkin Cake Recipe
Some dishes evoke memories of childhood or a special season and this pumpkin cake does just that, with all the aromas of pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and of course the pumpkin.
Our senses are activated and we begin to enjoy it even before taking the first bite of this delicious autumn cake.
This cake is a real treat, it is very easy to prepare and the texture is very special. Not enough with all these attributes and we add an incredible cream cheese frosting, soft, creamy, and with a very subtle flavor to not overshadow our pumpkin cake. Join us!
