I absolutely love this carrot cake. I just finished testing this desert with my godchildren who asked for more! I am going to a recipe party next week and know what iam bringing! Moist, flavorful desert.

REDUCED SUGAR VERSION: I replaced the white sugar with a splenda mix, reduced the oil by 1/2 cup, added a 1/2 teaspoon allspice. (I wanted to use applesauce, but I didn't have any.) I baked the cake in two 9" rounds for ~30-35min then frosted it with a (store-bought) reduced sugar cream cheese frosting. The overall effect was fantastic! You couldn't tell it was "missing" sugar and the cake was soft and moist without being greasy. I am not a fan of carrot cake, but I loved it!

Great recipe! I halved the recipe to make one cake, and added walnuts. This is the best carrot cake I've ever had :-)

This was a delicious carrot cake but I don't understand why the word "nutty" is in the description since there are no nuts in it. I'm sure you could add them, though. I think it calls for too much sugar especially with the pineapple so I reduced the amount to half. Plenty sweet enough. Thanks for a great recipe:o)

I took this cake to a party and people loved it so much that I caught the vegan sneaking bites! I cut the oil in half and added a cup of walnuts and it was delicious.

Very moist! The first time I made the cake (4/23/09), I did as directed except I cut the recipe in half. On 7/3/09, no crushed pineapple in the house so used pineapple "tidbits". Call the results an 'error in progress' because cake was too dry. Lesson well learned.

My daughter made this for her boyfriends birthday and it was absolutely delicious. She's not a raisin fan so she subbed with walnuts. The pineapple was a wonderful addition and certainly helped make this cake extremely moist. Great recipe and thank you!!
