2. Add the eggs to the creamed mixture one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves until well combined. Set aside.

4. In another bowl, combine the molasses and sour cream until evenly mixed.

5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture alternately with the molasses mixture, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix just until all ingredients are fully incorporated after each addition, being careful not to overmix.

6. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan to prepare it for the batter.

7. Pour the prepared batter into the greased and floured Bundt pan, spreading it evenly.

8. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before carefully removing it and transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Once the cake has cooled, sprinkle it with powdered sugar for a sweet finishing touch.

11. For an extra burst of flavor, serve the Gingerbread Pound Cake with a side of Lemon Sauce, if desired.

Lemon Sauce:

1. In a saucepan, combine the powdered sugar, cornstarch, and water, stirring until smooth.

2. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it becomes smooth and thickened.

3. Add in the fresh lemon rind and lemon juice, continuing to cook until the sauce is heated through.
