This is fabulous, without the frosting! I substituted cloves for the allspice, based on an old recipe. I used a 16oz. jar of Sunsweet stewed prunes, which yielded about 1 1/4 cups of pureed prunes, and the cake was very moist. I made this years ago using dried prunes, and it wasn't nearly as moist as with stewed. When my teenaged son heard it was made with prunes, he initially refused to try it. When he heard my husband comment how delicious it was, he tried it and loved it! Advertise it as a Spice Cake and no one will ever know!
