My husband is a big carrot cake fan, and he really liked this cake and so did I. We try not to use white flour or sugar, so the whole wheat flour was particularly appreciated, as was the low fat. We are eating it up much faster than the stated 32 servings would indicate! Moist and tasty. I made more frosting and sprinkled chopped walnuts on it.
