So goes another carrot cake craving, and after the success with Parvati’s Sugar Free Carrot Cake, (http://lazyblackcat.wordpress.com/2011/08/20/the-carrot-craving/) I’ve been rather confident with other carrot delicacies served at Mercato Centrale.
While posing no health benefits (i.e. sugar free or low cal) other than containing carrot – which on its own should make it the “good” cake – the next slice goes to Med Chef’s Carrot Cake. If you were expecting something more exotic, organic or gourmet, well I’ve decided to go all-out mainstream so yes, Med Chef it is.
Since it’s the first morning of 2012 and I just woke up, I’ve decided to be verbally nice.
Med Chef’s Carrot Cake will certainly be a treat to those who are anti carrot cake, since its overall flavor is cloaked in sweetness that it masks all that carrot-y taste that most people hate. There is a hint of cinnamon, but other than that, it’s sweet cake goodness that will surely make it as a mainstream favorite.
Being anti-mainstream (in short: anti-sugar + vegan), I’ve decided to pass up this bunny creation, since I would prefer frosting that is more cream cheese than sugary cream and carrot cake that is bland and carrot-y.
My brother seemed to enjoy it though, being a carrot and cake lover, though he did leave 1/6 of the slice in the fridge. Oh well, maybe he left it for the Easter bunny.
Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu!



my fave carrot cake is the chocolate carrot cake from Chocolat. to die for!!
