"Hi I always make your bread, which we love, but thought I'd try your carrot cake. Absolutely superb, lovely texture. Must try the other cakes. Thanks"

This is a clever cake for Christmas with the most gorgeous of glazes. Yes of course you can dress it up a little more with a drizzle of icing, dredge of icing sugar or festive cake decorations if desired. Deb the Bread
