Steps:
- Before you take a step, read this recipe through. Then get out all the necessary equipment and ingredients.
- Now measure all ingredients accurately using standard measuring utensils. We can't overemphasize how important accurate measuring is.
- Start your oven at 350 (F) or moderate.
- Next, heavily grease bottoms and sides of three 8-inch cake pans with shortening (do not use any salted fat).
- Then coat pans with flour by sifting a little into each pan and shaking vigorously so there is a film of flour over bottoms and sides.
- Dump out any surplus. This device helps baked cakes to drop from pans easily.
- Sift flour, then spoon lightly into a standard measuring cup and cut off excess to make a level cupful. Do not shake flour down into cup.
- Sift flour again, this time with the baking powder, baking soda, salt, cloves, cinnamon and pepper. Right here, if your brown sugar is lumpy, sift or roll it.
- Now, with your nice clean hands, work or cream the shortening, butter or margarine with a beating motion until it looks like whipped cream.
- At this point, begin to work in the brown sugar a little at a time; next the granulated sugar.
- Add vanilla extract.
- Continue creaming until mixture is very fluffy and the grains of sugar almost disappear. This is a bit of a chore, but it's the trick that makes a wonderful texture.
- When sugar is all in, add the eggs, unbeaten, one at a time, beating hard after each addition. From here on, work fast. Don't fool around!
- Now you begin to add the flour mixture.
- Sift about 1/3 into the batter and stir it in. Do not beat.
- Then add about 1/2 of the buttermilk or sour milk and stir it in.
- Repeat these operations, ending with flour.
- Pour batter into greased pans, dividing it evenly.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until cake edges leave sides of pans.
- Remove from oven, allow to cool about 5 minutes before turning out on a cake rack to cool thoroughly.

OLD-FASHIONED SPICE CAKE
This is a wonderful cake recipe that came on the back of, I believe, a Gold Medal flour package. In the 1980's my younger sister won prizes with Girl Scouts in several baking competitions. The caramel frosting is the best touch!
