Best Carrot Cake Recipe Ever

One of my favorite cakes is the ever classic carrot cake, with its moist and fragrant cake, and the light and creamy cream cheese frosting. I could eat unlimited carrot cake slices if I didn't have to watch the calories! It's a great recipe for any occasion, and I have to tell you, this is THE best recipe I have tried for a carrot cake.

One optional, but for me, crucial ingredient in this recipe is... pumpkin spice! You my ask "Why pumpkin spice in a carrot cake? Isn't it just for pumpkin pies and other Fall desserts? The pumpkin spice adds the fragrance that pairs so well with carrots, adding warmth and just that flavor you need in a rich and lush cake such as this. You can definitely make your own pumpkin spice blend, I will leave the recipe I use in a future post, but if you can't find anything else, at least at some cinnamon and some nutmeg in the batter.

Almond Chocolate Cake (beginner friendly)

When thinking about making a full cake with filling and glaze, we usually think of a difficult process involving multiple layers, complicated ingredients and pastry chef-like skills. But baking a cake should bring us joy, and the truth is that the process can be simplified significantly. Even a beginner baker can whip up this cake to impress loved ones. 

I made this cake during the lockdown for my mum's birthday, and I certainly found it doable with pantry ingredients. It is a quite forgiving recipe, and beginner friendly, so do give it a try!
