Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

In a small bowl, combine the chopped prunes, boiling water, and baking soda. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the prunes to soften.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the prune mixture and chopped nuts, if using.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once the cake has cooled, dust it with powdered sugar for a decorative finish.
