Pretty good....but I have had better...BUT....most carrot cake recipes do call for at least a cup to a cup and a half of oil, as this only calls for 1/3c. YES....I was looking for a lower fat and calorie cake and this was it...it was very tasty. A tad dry. Did like the fact that the oil was so reduced and that whole wheat flour was incorporated. Did not add the raisins or coconut. May make again....thanks!

Very good, but the flavor of the cloves was a bit overpowering and it was on the sweet side (yes, I DID use unsweetened applesauce). I left out the raisins and coconut. I topped it with walnuts and our favorite cream cheese frosting. I think walnuts inside the cake would be even better.

I made this for my picky, carrot-cake-loving husband for his birthday and he ate 1/2 of it in under 14 hours. Needless to say, it was good, really good.

Absolutely the best carrot cake ever!! My husband couldn't get enough and it was gone immediately. I will make this over and over and over again (the carrots did well in my garden this year).
