Best of the best

So great!! I'm a big lover of carrot cake and I thought our local health food store's restaurant made the best. I can say that this recipe beat its pants off! It was pretty easy to put together and baked up beautifully. The spices are incredible and the cake is moist. Pair it with the vegan cream cheese frosting linked above and it is absolutely divine. Love it! Thank you!

Moreover, I did try organic coconut oil which resulted in the best flavor. But, as I am sure everyone knows, organic oil is extremely expensive. It is also interesting to note that this butter for some reason will collect mold rather quickly if not used soon enough. Freezing only retards the mold growth. How long do you hold your butter before using? Have you tried other neutral tasting acids with..."
