Most ginger breads (including this one) can be served plain , no frosting or garnish. If you want a topping, there are many choices...a lemon glaze, a traditional buttercream, a brandy sauce (like those served at Christmas), a dusting of powdered sugar, some fruit soaked in whisky, a creme anglaise, etc. If your wife doesn't like regular cream chhrse icing, avoid this one too..
