    I altered this recipe by using melted butter instead of oil, I used 1/2 white sugar and 1/2 brown sugar, and I used 3 tbls cinnamon, a little nutmeg and allspice, shredded carrots and roasted walnuts. It turned out great! Very flavorful and moist. Like a lot of other reviewers I would use less oil/butter. By using butter the cake had a nice richness to it! This was by far the best carrot cake we've ever eaten, and everyone thought it came from a bakery! :

    I tried this recipe for the first time tonight. I thought it was super simple and the overall taste was good. The only mistake I made was making it in a 9x13 pan. It took way too long to bake and this caused my edges to be a tad bit crispy. I am going to do the resipe over again using 3 8" pans and see what happens.I added roasted pecans to the icing to give more spunk.

    This cake was a definite hit! It was so easy to make I couldn't believe it was a Paula Deen recipe. I added shredded carrots, walnuts, raisins and coconut for a true carrot cake taste, but it was wonderful - very moist and delicious. The icing is a huge hit as well. Thanks Paula!

    I loved this cake! Next time I will add 3 jars of carrot baby food to give a stronger carrot taste and only add 1 cup oil. But my husband loved this cake!

    Who would have thought of using baby food? My daughter left some of my granddaughter's food behind after a visit so I just had to try this recipe. I now keep some in my pantry so that I can make a cake without a visit to the store.

    Made this for my my grandma's 93rd b-day party. Took other reviewers' suggestions and made a few changes; added a few grated carrots, substituted unsweetened apple sauce for half of the oil, added some vanilla beans and used reduced fat cream cheese for the frosting. I'm sure the original version is pretty great, but I was very happy with how my slightly lighter version turned out. Not only did this recipe taste great, but it was super easy to make.
