Carrot Cake Day by Red Kite Consulting

Red Kite Consulting celebrates ’Carrot Cake Day’. Here are some little-known facts about Carrot Cake! It’s true — carrot cake is the best cake in the world, and that’s certainly not because the person writing this is heavily biased. Carrot cake has a distinctive sweet flavor, has the crunch of walnuts or pecans, and to top it all off it’s slathered in a cream cheese frosting. Carrot cake has been around for hundreds of years, with decades of experimentation owing to the deliciousness that is the modern carrot cake. It originally started life as pudding in a carrot, with cream, eggs, raisins, sweetener, spices, and breadcrumbs (in place of flour). Many historians believe that carrots were used in cakes due to their natural sweetness, as sugar and sweetener were hard to come by.
