TWD Bill’s Big Carrot Cake chosen by Amanda of slow like honey
This was a fun project since most of my family members loveeeee carrot cake... I don't usually add Shredded coconut and raisins but I decided to follow the recipe as is and boy was the result pleasant. The cake turned out to be very moist just like I love them and also not too sweet. The frosting was actually quite different than what I usually make adding the lemon juice gave the icing an extra pleasant taste. I will definitely add lemon juice to my icings from now on.

I'd never tried lemon juice in cream cheese frosting, either, but it was yummy. Nice job!

I agree that the frosting is incredible and the cake also. Your cake looks delicious!
Thank you all the cake was a success with my family I will definitely keep this recipe.
The lemon juice most definitely made the frosting great. I think I'm going to keep this cream cheese frosting recipe around for a while.
I'm glad you decided to add in the coconut and raisins! I think that's what makes this recipe so unique and yummy.
Looks your cake was a success! Great job!
It was extra moist wasn't it?
Good job!
