It was good, but I agree with the too much oil comment, seems excessive!! Icing makes too much, more than needed.

Good flavor. I think I will cut back on the oil next time. Made it as a layer cake and the icing was almost too much for it.

This one is fool proof! I happily assembled the ingredients and just as I was going to 'pour' it into the pans....the word 'spooned' from the recipe came to me. I realized that the tin of pinapple I had used was 14 oz not 8, so in a mad panic I threw in another cup or so of flour, and more baking soda and baking powder, mixed and then panned and baked. The cake looks great! I will definitely do this one again, but I'll cut the pinapple & juice in half. C

I actually used box cake mix BUT used this recipe for the frosting which turned out AWESOME!!! Wonderful compliments on my carrot cake cupcakes and the credit goes to the frosting.

Yummmm....the only change I made was to use 1 cup of applesauce in place of 1 cup of the oil (still used 1/2 cup oil). Moist and delicious! I baked 3 8" round layers and wished I had just a little more frosting. But the frosting was wonderful (maybe if I hadn't sampled that spoonful I would have had enough)!

I have made this cake twice now and it is absolutely Fantastic! I notice there were a couple complaints that it was too oil but it isn't if you mix it correctly. The first time I started hand mixing it and the oil would just not mix in and it looked like it would never combine no matter how hard I tried. I then used the electric mixer on a medium speed and wait a few minutes and it was perfect. The flavor on this cake is amazing and well worth making again and again!
