Mama Mia!!!

Mama’s Magical Carrot Cake!

I don’t know about you, but I just freakin love carrot cake!

As desert, breakfast, heck, as the main course! I’m seriously not sure I could ever get tired of eating it!

That said, we don’t make it that often. It is desert after all! Perfectly sweet & rich deliciousness!

You wouldn’t want to eat it all the time, healthified or not! But, when I do eat it, I darn well enjoy it.

My ALL-time FAV carrot cake is my Mom’s.

I know EVERYONE says that but legit, I’m pretty sure it’s the best carrot cake recipe there is.

I’ve never tasted better, and I’ve tasted A LOT!

So when I went Gluten, Dairy and most-Grains free, I was determined to have my cake and eat it too!

I’m happy to say, I’ve succeeded beautifully if I do say so myself!

I’ve made my own version, which I lovingly refer to as Mama’s Magical Carrot Cake with Dreamy Vegan Orange “Cream Cheese » Icing.

It’s out of this world delicious! And not just for gluten, dairy and grain-free either.

You’d never know the difference.

So as a gift to you my lovely, here is my Super-Secret recipe that I usually reserve for my clients.

Also, HERE‘s a video of me cooking THIS cake LIVE if you want extra pointers or just to see how it’s done.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

And if you do try it, I’d love to hear from you. Just leave a comment below. 🙂

Happy Eating!
