I think Carrot cake is Grate !

Sorry, couldn't resist

ha-ha. can't you provide something useful like a recipe? without pineapple, pls.

sansouci, I'm sure there are pineapple-free recipes on all recipes ... just a sec, I'll find some.

Here . Check the number of reviews etc, stick to ones with lots of reviews.

You can search on there by ingredients, I went for things that were described as cake, had carrots, no pineapple, and no cake mix ( for people who post recipes involving cake mix!)

bakedpotato posted a really nice recipe here

Just finished making NQC's Best Carrot Cake Ever. What a job, bob. I used grated raw apple instead of pineapple & reduced the sugar content by 1 cup. the idea of one cake with a pound of sugar was too much for me! It took about 90 mins to cook, instead of 50 & it looks very golden brown. I tasted some crust - yum, it's gorgeous. so thanks NQC. Hope you're in your bed now, getting better & not freezing cold!

Had a look at yours just now, Rickharman - I'll try that next time, it looks a lot less work! Thanks.

I posted my recipe on your other thread Sansouci, it is dead simple and yummy! (Btw do you have a connection to Lyon with your name?)

I saw your recipe on the other thread just now, Tatties. It sounds good, too. Thanks for all these carrot cake recipes. Maybe I should start a carrot cake test. One recipe a week. We'd end up fat as butter but oh, I do love carrot cake!

You'll have to let us know which one you like best

I'm glad to hear it went well - I was indeed in bed, and feel a bit better today, although still far too cold.
