Carrot Cake #100bakeschallenge
Thursday 3rd February was National Carrot Cake Day! I know what you’re all thinking! Oh, she’s a bit late here, it’s now Tuesday 8th February.

The Ultimate Carrot Cake- Delia’s Cakes.
Carrot Cake is one of those cakes you see everywhere and there are many versions of it. Over the years since I started baking I’ve made a fair few, some fantastic and some you’d want to chuck in the bin. This version though, is horrifically calorific seeing as the icing contains mascarpone! Heavenly, but gorgeous! […]

Carrot and Sultana Cake- The Hairy Dieters
A couple of weeks ago I needed something for pud to follow our Sunday lunch and wanted something quite light and not TOO heavy on the old calories. Even though I’ve made a lot of the savoury recipes in the two Hairy Bikers‘ diet books, I had yet to try the sweet ones. I […]
