Carrot cakes always remind mild sweetness and spongy. I just wanna try carrot cake at home even though I don’t have perfect rectangle mould. The natural sweetness and colour of carrots make the cake very unique and different from other cakes. I would recommend to peel off the carrots before grating it. Make a limited quantity and better to consume the cake on the same or next day. Because it just lasts one to two days at normal room temperature.
