Carrot Cake

My first time making a carrot cake, I was a bit nervous about how it would turn out but I needn't have worried! This cake was so wonderfully moist, I was really pleased with the turn out. I used Rachel Allen's recipe and it was pretty easy. The only thing was that I bought whole walnuts and it took quite a while to do all of the chopping but the result was more than worth it. I also used lemon zest rather than orange zest because I prefer the lemony flavour, which worked really well. I really recommend this recipe, with or without the icing, to have with a nice cup of tea!
