As an avowed carrot cake lover I've got a carrot cake recipe to suit every occasion. Trying to make a spectacular carrot cake? How about one for a vegan eater or a gluten free one? How about a Hawaiian carrot cake or one with blood oranges for Spring? I've got you covered for carrot cake!
1 - Biscoff Carrot Cake
I'm starting off with my favourite carrot cake and perhaps the most striking of all five carrot cakes. This is a beauty flavoured with Biscoff, everyone's favourite biscuit spread. There's richly spiced carrot cake with sultanas and crystallised ginger, a layer of Biscoff spread, a coating of cream cheese and nutty browned butter frosting and an adornment of carrot fronds, gerbera petals and carrot tops!
2 - Chocolate Carrot Cake
So I hear there are people out there that don't love carrot cake. WUTTTT!!?? Yup so this cake is for those people or the undecided. It's half a rich chocolate cake and half a carrot cake so you've just about pleased everyone!
3 - Vegan Carrot Cake
Oh hang on, did I forget the vegans? Well vegan carrot cake is just about the easiest carrot cake there is out there! Plus you won't get a runny buttercream like you get with cashew cream cheese. This recipe has a wonderful tangy buttercream that tastes like cream cheese icing!
4 - Carrot and Blood Orange Cake
This is one of my favourite spring time cakes. It's a moist carrot and blood orange cake with coconut, blood orange, spices and cream cheese frosting plus the goodness of carrot to keep this cake wonderfully moist!
5 - Hawaiian Carrot Cake (Gluten Free)
Everyone loves Hawaii and dare I say everyone loves this Hawaiian carrot cake with pineapple, macadamias and ginger added to a traditional carrot cake and pineapple flowers on top! There's even the silkiest buttercream where you use much less sugar than a traditional frosting!
So tell me Dear Reader, which carrot cake would be your pick?
