I am not a carrot cake fan BUT my hubs is!! He’s very excited for this one. LOL
April 14, 2008 at 9:00 am
Woo hoo! I can SO handle this one
Love carrot cake, and I bet my co-workers will too!
April 14, 2008 at 9:17 am
Carrot Cake is one of my absolute favorites! Can’t wait to make it!
April 14, 2008 at 9:29 am
Like CB…I don’t love carrot cake, but DH and his family are! This will be fun!
April 14, 2008 at 10:31 am
Yes! I’m excited for this one, too. I was just dreaming about carrot cake this morning…
April 14, 2008 at 10:45 am
My son’s baseball coach is a carrot cake fanatic. This one’s for the coach.
April 14, 2008 at 11:05 am
I’ve been craving carrot cake like crazy so this is perfect! I might even make it tonight.
April 14, 2008 at 11:17 am
I’m going to have to sit this one out–Passover begins on Saturday, so no leavened stuff for me!
April 14, 2008 at 11:30 am
Hubs is going to love this one! It’s his favorite. I’ll have to see if it beats out my all time favorite family recipe…hmm…
April 14, 2008 at 11:50 am
Will I be excommunicated from the group if I leave out the nuts and make the cake into cupcakes? Need something to take to vet’s office – our little min pin had eye problems so I owe the office something tasty. Also, my 10 year old is deathly allergic to nuts so this way she can have her cake and eat it too! I know, lame joke – but it’s Monday………………….
April 14, 2008 at 11:55 am
carrot cake! SWEET… *imagines herself licking the cream cheese frosting off the moist cake*..
April 14, 2008 at 12:00 pm
This will be a challenge against my mom’s carrot cake which is amazing. I look forward to this one.
April 14, 2008 at 12:17 pm
I need information.
I received today per mail the recipe of the marshmallows. In fact, one day before we have to post it. First, why so late and second why if we are supposed all to have the book at home ?
Thank you
verO
April 14, 2008 at 12:47 pm
Yum! Can’t wait – and sooo handy as I have a four tier carrot wedding cake due soon! Hx
April 14, 2008 at 1:12 pm
Oh, dear. Another recipe I must absolutely positively find the time to make. My husband loves carrot cake, and he’s very picky about it, so I’m eager to get his opinion. This is purely scientific, of course, and has nothing to do with visions of carrot cake and cream cheese frosting dancing about in my head.
April 14, 2008 at 1:21 pm
I am not crazy about carrott cake either, but my hubby is. This one will be for him and his co-workers!
April 14, 2008 at 1:31 pm
YEA! I’ve been wanting to make one of Dorie’s cakes! Good choice!
April 14, 2008 at 1:35 pm
i LOVE carrot cake! i can’t wait to try this and compare it to the pastry queen’s carrot cake (my new all time fav)
April 14, 2008 at 1:39 pm
delimoon – yes, we are all supposed to have the book at home – the recipe we receive via email is not for us to make the recipe but rather as a convenience so you can post the recipe to your blog without having to take the time to type it out each week. the person who chooses the recipe types it up and sends it in and then it gets forwarded to the rest of the group so we can all post it on tuesday. hope that clears up your confusion.
April 14, 2008 at 3:23 pm
I finally jumped on the TWD bandwagon! I’m so excited that my first recipe is a favorite of mine and my husband’s! Can’t wait to get to know all of you
April 14, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Hi everyone – I don’t actually get any e-mails with recipes – am I alone in this? It isn’t a problem as I just copy and paste from the host baker for that week but I would hate to think I am missing out on other information? Here’s to carrot cake next week!! Yippee!
April 14, 2008 at 7:13 pm
Last week was the first week that I did NOT receive the typed recipe. I didn’t receive it this week either. Is it only going out to some people? I checked my spam too and nothing.
April 14, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Helen,
I didn’t get the recipe last week and I haven’t yet this week either. I checked my spam folder (I found the email there in earlier weeks) and it wasn’t there so I thought it hadn’t been sent out this week yet but it sounds like others may have gotten it so now I’m not sure!
April 14, 2008 at 7:27 pm
Megan, I’m omitting the nuts as well, which is what I will do with all nut recipes (except peanuts) as the hubs is allergic.
I’m not getting the emails with the recipes typed up either – I haven’t gotten them in at least 3 or 4 weeks.
April 14, 2008 at 7:48 pm
I’m excited about this one! I absolutely love carrot cake, and it’s my fiance’s favorite type of cake. I use my mom’s recipe and it’s fabulous so I’m interested to see how this one compares.
Last week since there were so many variations on what type of tart you could make (there were a lot of crust recipes and some made the orange and some made the lemon) they didn’t send it out. But otherwise you should be getting the e-mails.
April 14, 2008 at 7:59 pm
What great timing! I promised my Husband I’d make a carrot cake for this birthday, and this is the recipe I chose to make!
April 14, 2008 at 8:02 pm
I promised myself I would eat healthy all week… carrots are healthy right?
April 14, 2008 at 8:28 pm
I think I am going to make these into cupcakes…easier to take to work and share than a whole cake!
I haven’t been getting the emails either the past few weeks. I don’t mind typing the recipe myself, but just curious why the emails stopped.
April 14, 2008 at 9:12 pm
I haven’t been getting emails either…..is there a list serve we could start and then the person who picks the recipe each week is also in charge of typing it up and emailing it?????
April 14, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Yummmmmmmmm carrot cake!
April 14, 2008 at 9:41 pm
Oh cupcakes! What a perfect idea Sarah. I might just do that too, thanks. Saves me from having to go out and buy a small cake pan so I can half the recipe.
April 14, 2008 at 10:07 pm
I was thinking cupcakes too! I’m looking forward to this one! yum!
April 14, 2008 at 11:39 pm
Finally! My candy thermometer can take the week off.
April 15, 2008 at 4:21 am
Well, I have taken quite a close look on your website and I must say that I find it extraordinarily interesting.
April 15, 2008 at 8:10 am
Sounds good, but since I made a carrot cake recently I’m going to sit this week out. Can’t wait to see what you all make!
P.S. If I eat another marshmallow, I might just die. Mallow overload!
April 15, 2008 at 10:46 am
Yum Yum!
April 15, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Nice choice!!
I made my marshmallows today for the first time ever and we simply loved them. The texture is amazing, thanks Dorie!!
Here’s a photo:

Have a nice day!!
April 15, 2008 at 8:47 pm
I got the cutest cupcake liners at Target today. I’m also going to try making a couple of “mini cakes” with ramekins like a fellow food blogger did recently. Can’t wait!
April 15, 2008 at 9:00 pm
Hi, everyone. Those of you who are thinking of making cupcakes: how long will you bake them? I just skimmed Dorie’s recipe in the book and I believe she only mentions using three 9 inch cake pans! That will be a giant cake! Do you bake cupcakes for approximately the same amount of time as regular cake pans? Thanks for any help!
April 15, 2008 at 10:59 pm
Shirlie,
In my experience cupcakes take anywhere from 20-25 minutes, depending on how dense they are. Obviously you can use this information as a starting point but I would start checking them after 15-18 minutes. My oven runs hotter so things take less time. Hope this helps!!
April 15, 2008 at 11:26 pm
love carrot cake! i’ll probably make these into cupcakes too, much easier to transport on the subway to work!
this cake looks like it has a lot more texture than i’m used to. i’m curious to see how it comes out/tastes.
April 16, 2008 at 9:47 am
Thanks, Megan. I’m going to attempt cupcakes this weekend, and will move any questions/comments I have regarding this recipe over to the other thread specific to problems. Good luck, everyone!
April 21, 2008 at 12:51 pm
Unfortunately, I will not be able to make this challenge, as we have been out of town. It is too bad, as Lenny LOVES carrot cake! Will be there for the next one, for sure!
