Easter Cake

Carrot cake is my favorite cake. There’s spice, there’s sweetness, and there’s hidden vegetables. What could be better than that?

This kind of cake is delicious on its own, sure, but it makes an incredible celebratory cake, especially for Easter. I’m sure the Easter bunny’s favorite cake would be carrot cake, wouldn’t you agree?
