You have another great one here...it's on my "to do" list now...keep them coming...


It's an old recipe of my Grandmother. In fact, I am the only one with the recipe and everyone in the family is begging me for it. So now the cat is out of the bag, hehe


My mother used to make an orange glaze with the carrot cake I have posted.... I thought it was weird but when I think about it, the glaze was really good & different! I sure miss her.
I somehow bypassed this recipe until now! Thank you for sharing! jett
