Make sure you use full fat cream cheese for the icing. Once I accidentally picked up low fat cream cheese, and the icing was really thin and runny. Always lots of praise for this cake.

Usually a cake-failer but this got me shook!
I was so surprised at how this turned out, and found the recipe super easy, and was super moist! I had everybody coming back for seconds and thirds saying it was the best carrot cake they'd ever tried!

Great cake to make. Just add more icing sugar to icing if it looks too runny. I don't add all the icing sugar at once, then you can decide how thick you want to make it.

This carrot and pineapple cake is just scrumptious. I do baking for my ward every weekend for the doctors and nurses (I work as an Inpatient Receptionist at a hospital) and the feed back was that it is the best cake they have tasted. I have been asked to bake it again as within an hour the whole cake had gone and some of the team didn't have a chance to taste it.

The best Carrot Cake and makes a large size cake. I add a mashed banana to the wet ingredients to keep it moist.
Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Grease 1 x 30cm round cake tin or 2 x 20cm round cake tins and line with baking paper.
Beat eggs, Chelsea White Sugar and oil together until pale and creamy.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and mixed spice.
Fold dry ingredients into egg mixture, then fold in the grated carrots, pineapple and walnuts.
Pour mixture into prepared tin or tins and smooth the top. Bake for 1 hour (check at 45 minutes for the 20cm tins, if using a 30cm tin it may take slightly more than 1 hour), or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow to cool in tin(s) for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Icing Beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. Add the smaller quantity of Chelsea Icing Sugar, and the lemon juice and rind. Beat until smooth and well combined. Add the extra icing sugar if needed.
If using two cakes, ice the top of one cake generously then place second cake on top. Cover with the rest of the icing. Decorate with chopped walnuts, if desired.
Make sure you use full fat cream cheese for the icing. Once I accidentally picked up low fat cream cheese, and the icing was really thin and runny. Always lots of praise for this cake.

This carrot and pineapple cake is just scrumptious. I do baking for my ward every weekend for the doctors and nurses (I work as an Inpatient Receptionist at a hospital) and the feed back was that it is the best cake they have tasted. I have been asked to bake it again as within an hour the whole cake had gone and some of the team didn't have a chance to taste it.
