Carrot cake is an old English cake that does actually contain carrots, believe it or not. I think the carrots are there to add a bit of sweetness, and to help keep the cake moist. Anyway, it's delicious.

I like to add a zippy lime frosting to the top of mine
To make my carrot cake you will need:
►250g self raising flour
►250g light brown sugar
►4 medium sized free range eggs
►Zest of 1 large jaffa orange
►100g sultanas
►250g grated carrot
►1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
►1 tsp ground cinnamon
►1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
►1/2 tsp ground ginger
►160ml of sunflower or vegetable oil
►50g pecan nuts
►50g walnut halves

For the lime frosting:
►150g unsalted butter at room temp
►300g full fat cream cheese
►50g caster sugar
►Zest of 1 lime

You will also need a loose bottomed or springform cake tin and baking paper.
