    this is an amazing cake! the first carrot cake i have ever tried to make.. everyone that tried it said it was the best they had ever had! but i didnt use the parchment paper. also i added a couple handfuls of golden raisens and it didnt seem to cook as long as the recipe suggested... so just keep an eye on it about 10 mins before its ready

    This cake was a HUGE hit!
    I used some orange zest and orange juice in the frosting and everybody wanted the recipe.
    Simple and delicious! Thank you!

    I have made this cake several times for my family for the holidays. I am making it again for Christmas this year. Everyone loves it and the cake is actually very easy to make! Follow Paula's instructions on this cake and there is NO WAY it will fail.
    Thanks Paula for another great recipe!

    u really dont have to because things dont really stick to parchment paper, but if u wanted to take the extra precaution, you could lightly grease and u might want to test out the recipe first before you serve it to a large group of people. (im not saying the recipe is bad, i havent tried it yet. i hope this helps

    To the person that said the cake was to oily you didn't do something right. Mine came out perfect the only things were you need the wax paper in the bottom of the pans cause i didn't have any and it was alot of work getting the cakes out .I only had two 9 inch cake pans didn't have batter left after filling the 2 pans .Also i only cooked my cake for 30 mins not the 40 it would have been way to done if i had left it in the oven but all ovens are diff so watch cake after 28 mins start checking ever 2mins

    This is an amazing cake! I made this for my husband's birthday and he loved it. I caught him sneaking back for seconds....thirds...our whole family enjoyed it very much. I have to disagree with some that say the frosting overwhelmed the cake. The combination between the cake and frosting was just right. I had a lot of frosting left over, so maybe I wasn't as generous with the frosting as others. Again wonderful Carrot Cake!
