    All the frosting without the carrot cake, please.

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

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Red velvet is 2nd 😅d1sekxmo8nak.jpg

    @tams_89 velvets aite wouldn’t be in my top 5 but you had carrot at the top so you’re forgiven

    So your top 5 would be .....? :)

    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.

    Sup @ReenieHJ

    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 😋

    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.

    @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!!!!

    Okay, as a kid, I never had a birthday cake.

    Instead, my mother would make lemon meringue pie from scratch; it was Heaven. (it still is.)
