In a giant bowl, stir cake mix, pudding mix, ginger, cinnamon, & allspice together until evenly distributed.

Pour in to prepared baking pan & bake about 40 minutes, until middle springs back when lightly touched & sides are pulling away from the pan. Cold to room temperature before adding the optional glaze.
Optional Glaze:
Whisk two to three Tablespoons of heavy cream or milk in to one cup powdered sugar to a drizzling consistency. Spoon in to a zip-top bag, squeeze out the air, & seal. Snip off small corner of the bag & use as a pastry bag to drizzle the cooled chocolate cake with the glaze.
For Bundt Cake: Spray 10-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray, & dust with cocoa powder, tapping out any excess. Bake bundt cake about 50 minutes, until middle springs back when lightly touched & sides are pulling away from the pan. Cold on rack for 15 minutes, remove cake from pan & cold before drizzling the glaze.
