"A perfectly balanced cake with a sticky crumb and the right amount of alcohol. The textures of coconut on top and the soft carrot blend well together, and the dark-chocolate ganache has a real intense hit of fruitiness. A triumph!"
Not to brag or anything, but that's one of the lovely Great Taste Awards judge's comments on Drunken Carrot while awarding it two stars.
This is a deep, single layer cake covered in rum ganache, topped with toasted coconut flakes and served without filling.
