[...] Happy Birthday Sis! Another mission accomplished…my first carrot cake! I’ve been wanting to make a from scratch carrot cake for a long time now. I finally found a recipe on Peabody’s blog that looked perfect so decided to make it this weekend. Now a lot was depending on this cake being good since I was making it for my little sister’s birthday. She and my mom were up for the weekend so I thought it would be a great time to make this cake. I was a little concerned, not about the recipe, but about my ability to make a wonderful carrot cake and frosting from start to finish. But thankfully, this turned out so great. My sister, mom, and husband loved it! I sent most of the cake home with my mom and sister so they could eat some later and take some to my dad. My dad just called tonight to say it was the best carrot cake he’s ever had. This recipe is a keeper! [...]

I’ve used your recipe and made this cake over the weekend (w/some slight variantions) and oh was it delish! Thank you for sharing…the ginger definately adds a distinct flavor to this version. I have to get me that book now:-D

Oh no, I hope you’re up and running by now. I love how your carrot cake looks, I can never get my cream cheese frosting to look like that! It always just kind of melts all over the place. I guess it doesn’t help that I live in a very humid place. I’ll have to try your frosting recipe and see if that works here.
