My Husband's Favorite Cake is Carrot. I made this for His Birthday. He called Our Boston & Chicago Daughters' and told them his Cake was the BEST Carrot Cake he ever tasted. My next lifetime, I hope I return as Ina Garten. I never fail, when I use Ina's recipes.

I was a bit hesitant when I saw this recipe till I actually made the cake. Very easy instructions to follow and it was perfect! I loved it! its was rich and smelt beautiful : I added coconut shavings instead of the nuts it was great. Cream cheese frosting is the best for this recipe :

I do not own a scale - yet, so I did some researching and found that 3 cups of shredded carrot works well in this recipe. I highly recommend that you chop the nuts, mix dry ingredients, dice the pineapple, prepare the pans, shred the carrots, flour the nuts and raisins and crack the eggs before assembling the ingredients. It takes quite a few minutes to do those things. Otherwise, assembling the cake will be a long and tedious process. The cake batter was quite thick. So thick, I double-checked the ingredients list, thinking I might have left out a liquid. However, that is the way it is supposed to be and the cake came out moist and delicious. I ran out of unsalted butter. However, the salted butter tasted delicious in the frosting. I used walnut halves instead of pineapple as a garnish, since pineapple has a tendency to bleed and then dry out. My family was amazed, as this is the first time I have ever served them a layer cake. Very nice recipe.

This cake was absolutely perfect--by far, the best carrot cake I have ever had. I followed the recipe and added one thing: I put a layer of fresh diced pineapple on top of the frosting layer between the two cakes. When it came to decorating, I pressed coconut around the outside of the cake and I decorated around the top border with crushed walnuts instead of pineapple. A smash hit at our Father's Day bbq.

Ina,
I don`t think there is a recipe you have done i haven`t liked, but, this one "takes the cake", no pun intended. I have been looking for a recipe with pineapple in it for about 20 yrs.So am very pleased. Thank you so much. vic win7

Very delicious. Did not use raisens, but thats a small differential.
Would defininitly make it again, although cake without the frosting, is a tad bland

Out of this world! MOist, delicious and definitely a hit ! There was not a crumb remaining. The cake was finished in a few minutes! There is no water used. All the moistness comes from the delicious pineapple! The raisins give it extra crunch and sweetness and the walnuts not only good for health give s nice bite too. The carrots are not even tasted. So no kid will even know its in there. Try it and you wont be disappointed.
