I make this cake often for events and receive many requests for the recipe. Friends have described this cake as "the best I have ever eaten" and "Magic Cake". It is always a hit. Thanks for making everyone so happy!

It is the one from the Old Farmer's cookbook. Best carrot cake recipe on the planet! I cut the oil back to 1/2 cup and used 1/2 cup pineapple juice in place of all the original oil. Baked in a 13x9 pan. Delicious!

This cake really lives up to its name! Everyone at my Easter party loved the cake and the piece I got the next day was even better then before. I made the cake the day before my party and it was just so moist and delicious! I will be making this again.

This had so many great reviews...however, I didn't think it was anything too great. It was a little dry. It was ok and the guests I served it to liked it well enough.

I baked this and brought it into the office for my boss' birthday and it was a major hit!! One of the guys told me I should give up my day job and become a baker! I made 2 changes to the recipe - as per some of the other suggestions, I substituted 1/2 cup of pineapple juice for 1/2 cup of the oil. I also baked it in a 13x9" pan instead of three 9" rounds. I had to increase the baking time to about 50 minutes and unfortunately, when I opened the oven door after 40 minutes, the cake fell in the middle. Still tasted great but looked awful. All of the guys said this is a keeper and I am sure it will be requested for future birthday celebrations!

This is delicious. The first time I made it I tried to make some changes to make it healthier - DON'T DO IT. The recipe is perfect as is.

I am a very experienced baker. I was not pleased with the outcome of this recipe. I was making side cakes for a wedding and this cake did not rise well. Tried it twice. If you want a perfect carrot cake use the Cake Doctor's recipe. It came out very high and even and everyone at the wedding raved about it..

I have made this same recipe for years with 2+cups carrots and without the coconut, and it is the BEST. Carrot cake is my husband's favorite. He has tried those at several high end restaurants and says they aren't as good as this recipe. I always add a little more pineapple and nuts than what is called for and use a cream cheese frosting. It also works well in a 13x9 pan at 325 for about an hour. Next time I will add coconut and if he likes it, I will keep it including it. You can't go wrong with this recipe!
