National Carrot Cake Day
On February 3rd, one of America's most popular cake flavors is named National Carrot Cake Day. We'll also enjoy our cake and veggies in the carrot cake!
From its preparation to its final consistency, Carrot cake closely resembles a quick bread. The final product is coarser than a traditional cake, as quick breads mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining. The layers are often separated by creamy frosting, which often complements the cake's spice. The natural sweetness of carrots goes well with Cinnamon and nutmeg. Many bakers also add nuts or raisins to their recipes.
When sugar was impossible to find or costly, the carrot's natural sweetness may have been used as a substitute in the Middle Ages. Carrot cake is most likely made from a carrot pudding, which can be savory or sweet.
