A moist carrot cake with a lemon icing. Only almonds rather than walnuts as well and no spices. Is really delicious and is the standard birthday cake in our household.
Very delicate, delicious cake--very different from the more "hearty", spiced carrot cake we're all used to. I loved the lemon flavor and the light icing--perfect for serving at a tea or brunch. Mine came out a little dark on top, so you may want to cover with foil the last 20 minutes or so of baking. I'll be serving again for special occasions!
Read MoreThis cake was a little too lemony for me. I was looking for something closer to carrot cake. This, while good, did not taste anything like carrot cake. It is light and would be good to serve at a tea or luncheon.

was very moist, a delicious cake. I frosted it with the lemon glaze frosting and sprinkled sliced almonds on the top.. was a big hit..
Well, I didn't expect that. And I knew not to expect a normal carrot cake but wow. The lemon on top gives a wham bam, thank you ma'am.
Nice summery flavors with the addition of lemon. I liked it very much. Goes great with tea.
I baked the cake for 40 minutes, substituted pecans for almonds and made the glaze with 1/2 teaspoon almond extract and milk instead of lemon juice with the powdered sugar. Turned out delicious and was greatly enjoyed by the family.
