I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts with chopped dried apricots. It was delicious!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add a bit more spice and maybe some chopped walnuts or raisins.

The cake was a bit dry. I think I might have overbaked it. Next time, I'll bake it for a few minutes less.

I found this recipe to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar by half.

I'm not a big fan of carrot cake, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I'm so glad I did! The cake was moist and flavorful, and the frosting was creamy and tangy. I'll definitely be making this again.

I was skeptical about the combination of carrots and Middle Eastern spices, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well they worked together. The cake was moist and flavorful, and the frosting was creamy and tangy. I'll definitely be making this again
