Gingerbread with Whipped Cream

Ginger in three forms triples the impact of this wonderfully spicy cake, a fresh alternative to more traditional gingerbread. You can top each slice with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of crystallized ginger, or frost the whole cake with the cream just before serving and scatter the ginger evenly over the top.
