I've made this cake for my husband and son's birthday parties and didn't have a crumb left over afterward. I recently used this recipe for cupcakes and those were just as big of a hit. The only problem with a recipe this good is that, once people know you can make it, they want you to make it all the time! It is delicious!!!

I love carrot cake and will definitely try this one.

Amazing!! I got so many compliments on this cake. I do have a suggestion - increase the batter by 25% to make the layers a little thicker. I only say that because the sides can get a little crunchy and that could be because of over baking it, but i really think a thicker cake helped this. so so delicious!! Thank you Paula!!

Make this for every holiday and everybody always LOVES it!! Best carrot cake I have ever eaten! This recipe makes a huge cake though. Usually, I cut the recipe in half and bake the batter in a mini cupcake pan. Makes about 24-36 mini cupcakes. The mini cupcakes freeze well too! I frost them up, put them in a glass container with a lid (trying not to squish the tops), and toss them in the freezer. Take them out for 5 mins before serving and they taste delicious!!! I also substitute the oil for applesauce (the cake is healthy then, right??).

this recipe doesn't call for baking powder, why are there some with and some without? I'm going to try your recipe.

Well according to all the comments, I will be making this receipe rather soon. I think I will make it for father's day. Also, more for myself seeing that carrot cake is MY absolute favorite cake out there. The picture itself is soooo wonderful looking. I wish I could eat the screen. LOL

I give this recipe 5 stars. It was wonderful! very moist, great texture, flavor and just all around terrific. I reviewed many recipes before I tried this one and even the frosting is terrific. Try it out and you will love it too. Enjoy!!!

Paula - do you sell the fancy measuring spoons and cups. If not where can I order them? Thanks. Eileen

This cake was terrible. The frosting was the only good thing about it. The problem with the cake was the texture. It was spongy and the layers didn't rise normally in the pans. The one variation I used when following the recipe was I did not use a hand mixer. I used my kitchen aid stand mixer. The minute i turned on the mixer I could tell something was wrong with the batter. It looked gooey as it was mixing. Very disappointed.

This is an amazingly good cake, but I put in a can of pineapple, it was even more delishous,more moist. even if you dont usually like carrot cake I also used walnuts instead of pecans.
