Simple Carrot Cake
posted in Cakes and Pastries |This simple cake recipe is great for afternoon tea. Simple and Easy. You notice that I use Green Love Rice Bran oil. I like to use this as it adds a great taste to the cake as well as it is simply a heathier oil. If you like, you can replace rice bran oil with butter.
