GRENADA SPICE CAKE
This recipe comes from the Caribbean Island of Grenada, known the world over as "The Spice Island." Use freshly grated nutmeg which has a lemon sweet delicacy that does not exist in the commercially ground. Although Grenadians sometimes spread a vanilla or chocolate butter cream icing over the cake, the cake is best left unfrosted. This cake is especially good with fresh sliced peaches, nectarines, plums or sectioned navel oranges. It's even better with any of these fruits spooned on top.

Steps:
- Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together onto a piece of wax paper and set aside. Cream together the butter, sugar, lime rind, nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice until silvery and light-no sugar grains should be discernible on the tongue when the mixture has been properly creamed. (This may take as long as 5 minutes at high mixer speed.) Beat the eggs in, one at a time. Now add the sifted dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry. (I usually mix the flour in - in about five separate additions and the milk in - in three.).
- Spoon the batter into a well buttered and floured 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan, pushing the batter well to the corners and smoothing the surface as much as possible. Bake in a slow oven 300 F for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the cake begins to pull from the sides of the pan and leaves an imprint that vanishes slowly when you press the top with your fingers.
- Remove the cake from the oven, stand the pan upright on a wire rack and allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Loosen the cake around the edges with a thin-blade spatula, turn out on a wire rack and cool to room temperature. To serve, slice just as you would pound cake.

This is a substantial yet tender spice cake that's flavorful enough to serve unadorned.

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour a metal or disposable foil 9-by-13-inch pan. Whisk dry ingredients and spices in a large bowl. Mix milk, eggs and vanilla extract in a 2-cup measuring cup.
- Beat softened butter into dry ingredients, first on low, then medium, until mixture forms pebble-sized pieces. Add about 1/3 of the milk mixture and beat on low until smooth. Add remaining milk mixture in two stages; beat on medium speed until batter is just smooth. Add the sugar; beat until just incorporated, about 30 seconds. Pour batter into cake pan.
- Bake until a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the cake's center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Set pan on a wire rack; let cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the pan perimeter and turn cake onto rack. Let cool.

GRENADIAN SPICE CAKE
I used a tube or bundt pan and served it with a spiced whipped cream. I also added a bit more lime zest. Make sure to test for doneness at around 50 minutes depending on what pan you use. Just want to add a note. This is a dense cake . The flour is SIFTED into the measuring cup for each cup and not measured first then sifted.
