This cake is very sweet and yummy. It fits on every easter holiday coffee/tea table and slighty tastes of carrots (this taste was new to me but is delicious in combination with the vanilla flavour and the sweetness of the cake). But it ist not a dry cake. It is very moist but firm. It also doesn´t rise either. Serve it with some soy-cream or a ball of vanilla ice.
