For an enhanced flavor, consider toasting the spices (cinnamon, allspice) lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the flour mixture. If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute half of the vegetable oil with melted butter. For a nuttier texture, add 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
