    Woah I didn’t think many over your neck of the woods knew about carrot cake I’m shocked. Your right about home made, stores don’t do them justice. Add a dollop of ice cream your in heaven 😋

    All the frosting without the carrot cake, please.

    And, of course, I meant the frosting from the WHOLE cake.

    Carrot cake has always been a favorite and @glassyo can have all the frosting on mine. I have a lot of feelings about frosting and people in the south (maybe everywhere) use too much.

    I'm surprised you're surprised. Carrot cake is VERY common in the U.S.
    Have you ever had zucchini (courgette) cake? In my opinion, it's better.

    Dare I ask if anyone here has a tasty lower calorie recipe for carrot cake? If so - please share. :p

    My daughter wants me to make one for her birthday in a few days. I should probably look for recipes or does anyone have a recipe to share? I made it once and it came out great I just don't remember where I got the recipe from 😕

    I'm the opposite; all the carrot cake and no frosting (that's any cake, though). :yum:

    Best cake is possibly red velvet or funfetti/confetti cake for me!

    They do! Same in the Midwest. Too much frosting and a cake should stand on its own merits and not be doused in frosting/icing/glaze.

    Loving desserts and living in the South is a dangerous combo, let me tell you.

    1. Funfetti
    2. Red Velvet
    3. Carrot
    4. Pineapple Upside Down
    5. German Chocolate

    All of these are without frosting, btw. Y'all can keep your frosting. Also, I did NOT include any cakes (like cheesecake) as I felt that was inauthentic to the question. The methods for preparing cheesecakes are wildly different than a standard baked cake.

    @SuzySunshine99 excuse my British ignorance but whenever I see stuff on American desserts it’s always donuts, cookies and ice cream lol.

    Can’t say I’m a fan or zucchini but if you saying it’s better could be worth a go

    No no no, frosting is the essence of the cake!!!!
