Directions
1.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 7 empty Campbell's® (10 3/4 ounce) soup cans with the cooking spray.
2.
Stir the flour, sugar, baking powder, allspice, cinnamon, baking soda and cloves in a medium bowl. Add the soup, shortening, eggs and water. Beat until mixed, using an electric mixer at low speed. Spoon into the prepared cans and place them on a baking sheet.
3.
Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean. Cool in the cans on wire racks. Remove the cakes from the cans.
4.
Drizzle the tops and sides of the cakes with Orange Icing. Top with orange zest, chopped nuts or red candied cherries cut in "leaves".
5.
Orange Icing: Mix 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice and 1 teaspoon grated orange rind in a small bowl until it's smooth.

Tip:
For Gift-giving: Leave the cakes in the cans. Cover the cans with wrapping paper. Add pieces of ribbons, gold medallions, holiday stickers, etc. Wrap in plastic wrap and tie with a ribbon.
