Easy Caramel-Glazed Pecan Spice Cake Recipe

Whether it’s the season to be jolly and bright or you’re craving fall flavor, this festive caramel-glazed pecan spice cake has everything you’re looking for. It makes the ultimate crowd-pleaser for a dinner party or church gathering. And it all starts with a box of spice cake mix – talk about easy! 

For this recipe, we fold chopped pecans  into store-bought spice cake mix for texture and flavor. Next, we whip up a tangy cinnamon-spiced homemade frosting with a secret ingredient: sour cream! Finally, we top it all off with salted caramel. Perfection!

Store Your Cake To Keep it Longer

If you have leftover cake, it’s crucial to store it right so you can keep enjoying it. This simple trick will prevent it from drying out: Secure a slice of sandwich bread to each exposed side of the cake using toothpicks. The bread will hold in the cake’s moisture, so that it stays fresh and delicious for days.
