Just so-so considering that this was not (IMO) a user-friendly recipe. Grating a pound of carrots and using cheesecloth was time consuming for the end result. I did like that a 9 x 13 pan was used rather than the standard 9" round pans for layer cakes, so I gave this one star. Obviously, I'm looking for ease of preparation.
