Fabulous cake, made a number of times with cream cheese frosting. Just ensure carrots are chopped up finely.

Really good, rose well and looked and tasted great. We added cream cheese icing. Would be easy to make gluten free by substituting GF flour for the 80g flour.

We used it in a special tin to make the number 5 for a birthday. It held perfectly well, it was moist and a real success. Highly recommended!

So simple & yummy. Made it
So simple & yummy. Made it for a weekend away & everyone loved this moist cake, even gluten eaters. I used 110g coconut sugar & 70g white sugar, total 180g, used quirky Jo's GF Flour mix, added teaspoon of vanilla bean paste & some chopped chunks of dark choc to mix at the end. DIdn't have pine nuts so used macadamia's instead. Thanks for a great recipe.

Delicious! I used dextrose instead of the caster sugar to make fructose friendly, brown rice flour and a bit of tapioca flour instead of wheat flour to make gluten free, and chopped macadamia nuts instead of the pine nuts because that's what I had in the cupboard.
This will be a regular cake in our house because it's so easy and tasty.
