    I made this cake for a work party and was told it was the best cake my coworkers ever eaten. It is not an inviting cake... It is huge and not visually very attractive, but once people got past that, they fell in love.

    This was a great cake. I am not a great baker, but this was simply and delish. Many requests to make it again. Just wondered if any other people found some small green bits in the cake.

    I used canned crushed pineapple in the cake and pumpkin puree instead of baby food carrots. NO pineapple in the icing. This was the BEST carrot cake I have EVER baked. YUM!!!!!

    So some of my family members are diabetics and so I changed the cake into a sugar free cake I took out the sugar and used splenda instead but while I was making the oil I didn't realize until later it was infused with garlic it was a little different but not again but the olive oil I think is good to bake with I do it a lot. The frosting I used sugar free vanilla pudding instead of confectioners sugar. After wards I asked my brother who cooks alot like I do and we discussed it and we both think that which I am going to try and see how it comes out that instead of lemon zest do orange zest we think the it will compliment the pineapple better and in the batter I am going to add a pinch of cloves and a pinch of pepper and definately no garlic it doesn't leave a very good after taste in your mouth. But other than that everybody else liked it.

    We loved this cake. It has a fresh, fruity taste--perfect for spring! The fresh pineapple makes a difference. Thanks, Food Network!

    Made this cake last year for my very "picky" family and it was a hit! I'm making it again this year. Thanks food network.

    Made this cake for my father's birthday and it was more than a hit! Absolutely tasty and incredibly moist. One of our guests was allergic to pineapple so I substituted applesauce for the pineapple (same amount:1/2 cup and toasted walnuts and pecans for the cake's topping. After reading other reviews I only used 1 1/2 cups of confectionary sugar to the icing and it tasted wonderful! Between the moistness of the cake and buttery cheesy smoothness of the icing, the cake tasted like a heavenly carrot cheesecake.

    The other 1/4 cup is used to flour the pans after they are greased in preparation for the batter so it won't stick to the parchment paper..
