Carrot Cake!



I am not usually fond of carrot cake but the piece I enjoyed a few minutes ago was exceptionaly delightful! A tender cake graced with the presence of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves; bursting with carrots, raisins and almonds and exploding my taste buds with a rich cream cheese frosting. Wow! Truly a marvelous (and incredibly easy) treat!

Oh you can almost see how moist it is from the photo!

If I'm not utterly mistaken... That's a fiesta ware plate it's on, is it not? If not I believe that's what the makers intended.

It reminds me of a cake I made just two days ago, it was a yellow cake, but instead of a bit of water in the recipe I used pineapple juice, and put pine apple chunks in it. It was also a delicious treat!

If you happen to have the recipe for that cake I would be most obliged to get it!
