Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake

This cake is incredible, moist, bouncy and perfectly spiced! It’s called a pumpkin spice sheet cake but it makes much more and its our favorite to make in the Fall. 

I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the #PumpkinWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake

It’s the second day of Pumpkin Week and I’m loving it. I’m so ready for Fall. From the changing leaves to the crisper temperatures, it’s my favorite time of year.

I’m also loving all of these incredible recipes that are being shared this week. We are celebrating our love of all things pumpkin, with #PumpkinWeek that runs through Saturday, hosted by Terri from Love and Confections and Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures.

Yesterday I shared these delicious Pumpkin Sprinkle Cookies, just in case you missed them.

Today I am sharing this decadent Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake. A big thank you to Dixie Crystals for all the sugar to create this favorite cake of ours, and another big thank you to Cabot Creamery for the butter and cream cheese! These two sponsors are giving away some awesome swag for this event! 

Special thanks to ALL of our sponsors for providing the prize packages. Don’t forget to enter the giveaway all the way at the bottom of the post. There are some great things to be won!

Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake

About this Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake – the cake is known as a sheet cake, but I find it bakes better and fits better in a 9×13 cake pan. It rises too much to be a sheet cake to be honest. But trust me, that doesn’t diminish this cakes incredible spiced flavor, pumpkin goodness or soft, moist crumb. 

It’s literally our favorite fall cake. 

It’s great with the included spiced cream cheese frosting, we love it. But we’ve also used a vanilla frosting as well. You could do almost any kind of frosting and it’d be fantastic. 

Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake

I’m often asked if pumpkin pie filling can be used instead of canned pumpkin. Not in this recipe. 

Can I use pumpkin pie filling instead of canned pumpkin puree?

It’s extremely difficult to substitute pumpkin pie filling when canned pumpkin puree is called for.

The difference between the two, is pumpkin pie filling is already complete with sugar and spices, and if you removed the sugar and spice from the recipe, it would change the flavor and outcome drastically. If you used it, you’d wind up with a cake that was too sweet and probably falling apart. It’s not the same consistency.

Pumpkin Puree is simply a combination of cooked and mashed different varieties of squash. Nope, not even pumpkin. It has no added sugar or spices and is typically pure (or should be).
