Instructions
Step 1
Cake:
① Add eggs & light brown sugar into a bowl and whisk.
② Add the grapeseed oil & mix.
③ Add the dry ingredients (Cake flour/almond powder/cinnamon powder/baking powder/baking soda/salt) and mix well.
④ Add all the rest (pecans, walnuts, raisins, carrots) and mix.
⑤ Pour into the pan and bake for 45~50mins at 165℃ (Pre-heat to 165℃). Adjust the baking time to suit your oven and taste. Stick in a wooden rod to check if any wet batter comes out – if so, then bake further.
⑥ Place the carrot cake onto a cooling rack and let it cool completely.
⑦ Slice it into 3 sheets of 1.5cm thickness.
Step 2
① Make sure the cream cheese and butter is at room temp (20℃)
Step 3
② Smooth out the cream cheese by lightly beating it.
Step 4
③ Sift in the sugar powder and mix.
Step 5
④ Smooth out the butter and add it in.
Step 6
⑤ Add in the lemon zest, followed by heavy cream.
Step 7
⑥ If you find that the frosting is a bit too runny, then put it in the fridge to harden it up a bit.

⊙How to store⊙
Step 9
Store the finished carrot cake in the fridge up to 5 days. It’s best to store in an air-tight container so it doesn’t dry out.
