It's really moist and stays so for a couple of days. I believe the addition of orange and lemon zest though optional really brings out the flavors. While the brown sugar apart from making it less sweet contains molasses which contributes to the soft texture of this cake.

Of course, Carrot Cake is known to be served with Cream Cheese frosting but you are free to try any of your favorite frosting or just plain with a cup of hot coffee as I am doing.
You can find my cream cheese recipe and other frosting recipes right her on my blog.
Until next time
Happy Cake Decorating.
Tried this recipe. Loved it.. I think I loved it more because it wasn't overly sweet. I'm going to try the chocolate cake next.

This was my first time making a carrot cake. And now I made this recipe twice, because it was so awesome. My father in law loves carrot cake so I made a trial cake first before I made one for his 70th Birthday Everyone loved it. My father in law as very happy to see that it was not as sweet as the ones you order. Lucky I had read your tips on the recipe page above. So I knew that once I decorate it it will be just right. Thanks for sharig your recipes. You have a great blog
