    The cake was amazing and moist but the icing was a bit runny and had to be kept chilled or the cake would slide apart.

    The frosting was superb (although I did add an extra 1/4 c. of confectioners sugar. The cake texture and moistness was excellent, but the flavor was completely bland...did not taste like carrots. I will not make this cake again.

    Not only was the cake easy to make, the taste was fantastic. My guests couldn't believe that it didn't come from a bakery.

    This carrot cake is better than Cheese Cake Factory!! It was quite easy to make and everyone enjoyed it immensely. Give it a try; you absolutely love it.

    This Carrot Cake is absolutely fabulous , scumptious for your guest to try during the holiday , You'll make more friends than ever they would be willing to leap montains for a second slice. Actually you should have this recipe already printed out for them as they walk out the door.

    My husband is a very picky eater and loves carrot cake. He really liked this recipe, which wasn't difficult to make either. The only suggestion I have is to chop the pecans a little more than listed. We wished the nuts were a little smaller. I also didn't use the nuts in the cream cheese, and I highly recommend that as well. The other reviews were right about the icing...by far the best.

    This has to be the best cream cheese frosting recipe ever!! Perfectly flavored and not overly sweetened. (Unlike Emeril's recipe which calls for an entire box of powdered sugar! Gross! The cake was very moist with great carrot / pecan flavor. One small change I'd make - reduce the oil from 1 1/4 c to only one cup total. The frosting pulled up much of the outside layer of the cake making for a somewhat unsightly frosting job. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for an outstanding carrot cake recipe. Rave reviews from all 15 recipients of this cake.

    This cake is very easy to make. However, I made it twice and the second time I backed down the baking soda to one and one half teaspoons because you could taste the soda in the first batch. I also baked it at 325 the second time and it came out much better, maybe it's just my oven, but that is what worked best, less brown and the nuts do not blacken as much. Icing is very good, best cream cheese icing I have ever had. Everyone loved the cake.
