About Spicy Pumpkin Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

I have tried few cakes and among all those there is something highlight in this cake. I have induced ginger powder and buttermilk for some spiciness in the cake.

Also I have used brown sugar and cinnamon powder, which is good for diabetics. This been a good combination with pumpkin puree and resulted in a best spicy pumpkin cake.
