I can't believe this hasn't been reviewed yet - it's absolutely divine! I am going to delete all other carrot cake recipes from my cookbook now 'cause I've found my perfect one. I reduced the sugar to 1 1/2C but this was still a bit too sweet for our tastes so I'll reduce it even further next time. Thank you Ranikabani for a perfectly moist, fluffy carrot cake :)
