This cake is great, but a lot of work and contains WAY too much sugar, fat, and oil. (It was a hit, however). I will modify this but using light ingredients and cutting the sugar (or sugar subsitute) in half. Lighter is always better in my book, and I don't feel bad for serving it to family and friends.

Very good! I wish you could taste the pineapple and coconut more. They do give the cake a nice texture. I left out the nuts and added some vanilla extract to the frosting. I would recommend not draining the pineapple as the batter seemed kind of thick. This recipe is not as good as my usual carrot cake recipe, but still worth making for a change!

This is the best carrot cake I have ever made. Every time I take this cake to a gathering, everyone requests the recipe. I did a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society "Relay for Life" and took orders foar this cake. I made 14 cakes on one weekend and have people wanting me to make more. I will be making 3 more tonight. I did not change a thing on this recipe and it was perfect. Thanks for a great recipe.

This is my favorite carrot cake. It is flavorful and moist and always a big hit. If I could get away with it, I'd eat it everyday!!

PERFECT!!! I used applesauce for the oil. Other than that I followed the recipe exactly and it was fantastic - very moist. Could use more cinnamon and a little bit of nutmeg, maybe.

Very good carrot cake. I only added 3/4 cup of sugar knowing I would frost the cake with a sweet cream cheese frosting. I also did not drain the pineapple. the cake came out nice and moist but not too moist.

My husband LOVED this cake. Really good. I do think it would be improved by the addition of some golden raisins, just needed that little extra, and double the frosting. Make sure cake completely cool before frosting, because it is so moist, it will crumble. Yum yum yum, thanks!

Absolutely amazing carrot cake!! I didn't use the nuts, as husband & daughter have nut allergy. Used an additional can of crushed pineapple instead. Added 1/2 tsp. nutmeg and 1/4 tsp. allspice. Needed a large cake so I baked 2 cakes (each one in a 9x13 pan). Then I stacked cakes on top of each other to make one very large and impressive cake. Tripled the frosting recipe. Tasted and looked fabulous!! Everyone always ask for seconds on this one!

Having read the reviews, I must admit I was a bit disappointed with the cake. It was tasty and moist, but not the best and frankly, I think the frosting was what made it only so-so for me. Too much powdered sugar. Instead of a cup of oil, I used 1/3 cup babyfood carrots, applesauce, and oil and did not double the frosting and there was just enough for a round layer cake.I did not add the walnuts but instead put slivered almonds on the sides of the cake for prettiness. I will probably make it again for another Easter, but with a difference cream cheese frosting.

This was an extremely easy cake to make. I first made it for my mother's birthday, as a layer cake. My husband asked me to make one for his co-worker's birthday and I baked it in a bundt pan. I adjusted the baking time accordingly. It is a very forgiving recipe and takes well to ingredient changes (i.e. more crushed pineapple, less oil.) This is definitely a keeper.

This cake is amazing!! Any time I have made this for a function I have always got many compliments; people love it! I like to add ground clove to the cake mixture to increase the flavor and for the frosting, I use two-8 ounce packages of cream cheese instead of one and add some vanilla and a little milk to the frosting mixture. I usually make this cake in two round pans and make it into a layer cake as picture shows but recipe says use a 9x13 pan which is fine too.

This recipe is delicous!! I used whole wheat flour and about half as much oil as it calls for. I also added some pineapple juice to the cream cheese frosting which added a nice tropical flavor.

This sounds great. I have a different recipe for carrot cake baking right now, and I am horrified to see I did not drain the pineapple as this one directs. Let's hope mine turns out OK (dinner party in a couple of days!)

Very, very good! The only thing I did a little different was with the icing. I used less of the confectioners sugar, and added some melted white chocolate. It turned out great!

This was delicious. I also added 1/2 C. golden raisins and 1/2 C. black raisins soaked in apple juice for 2 hrs. This addition worked out well and contributed to the moisture of this cake. I would definitely make this again.

I do not usually bake, but wanted to make carrot cake for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day. I followed your recipe and was amazed easy the directions were to follow. And the best part is, the cake is delicious. Your recipe rocks! This is going to be best Valentine's Day ever.
