For cake, cream butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
In another large bowl, sift together flour, soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. In a blender or a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process pie filling until cherries are coarsely chopped.* Add dry ingredients and pie filling alternately to creamed mixture, mixing until smooth. Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack to cool completely.
For frosting, combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Add sugar and beat until smooth. Frost between layers, on sides, and on top of cake.
