Flavorful, moist and delicious cake! I rarely eat, and have never made, carrot cake, but this was great! The only reason I made it today was because I purchased some carrot juice that is about to expire and this looked like a fun way to use it up. When I asked DH what he would rate this (and he always rates lower than me), he said, "Five stars, without a doubt". He loved the frosting, too! The only change I made was to add about 1/2 cup less sugar, and we thought it was plenty sweet. Thanks for a great recipe!

    This is a great and easy carrot cake recipe, especially if you can buy carrot juice and shreds. I've brought this to work and many people like the fact that it is not an overly sweet cake. This cake also freezes well. Since there are only two in my household it is nice to be able to cut the cake up into individual servings and freeze for later.

    You have outdone yourself with this recipe Barb. Everyone said it was the BEST thing I have ever made. Give most of credit to you. live in a small town, did have trouble finding carrot juice. Drove 30 min to bigger city paid almost $3 for the carrot juice. But it was well worth it. The only thing I will change the next time is I wont add that much walnuts in the cake. I did add them to the top of icing also.I know what I'm bring to Thankgiving this year.

    Simply superb! ! ! I substituted carrot juice with a fruit juice of carrot/ginger/orange. I also used a moist brown sugar. The texture was moist but light. My biggest critics couldn't get enough! ! ! ! !
