Obviously, I have found LOADS of recipes on the net, but this one needs to be good

and fool-proof, I am no Delia in the kitchen

Please share your scrummiest carrot cake recipes with me

If you want the really easy way, Wrights Flour make a Carrot Cake mix which only needs water and oil, and it's surprisingly good. A woman at work used it and brought it in, and I thought she'd slaved over a hot carrot for hours.

I made the Ultimate Carrot Cake off the Delia website at the weekend. The cake was nice, but I wasn't mad about the icing.

My sister's one is delicious - it has pineapple in it. I'll ask her.

Is it the one with the mascarpone / fromage frais topping? I like that one! (bloody expensive though)

This is a brilliant winter cake, really gungy and gooey and delicious:

It is. I prefer the sweeter, thicker icing you normally get on carrot cake. It was a bit too much like whipped cream for my taste.

NB there is also a carrot cake recipe on the suburban wiki.

ooh, Im getting excited about this cake

Think I will give the Delia carrot cake a shot, but make it with the lemon icing from May Kasahara's recipe instead. YUMMY

Will let you know how it turns out
