In the United States, this form of gingerbread is sometimes called "gingerbread cake" or "ginger cake" to distinguish it from the harder forms. French [[pain d'épices]] is somewhat similar, though generally slightly drier, and involves honey rather than [[treacle]] and uses less spice than other breads in this category.{{Cn|date=March 2025}}
