Carrot cake lovers, what say you? Is carrot cake merely an excuse to enjoy cream cheese? Is it not even worth making carrot cake if it doesn’t end up topped with a generous layer of thick, creamy, sweet-but-slightly-tangy icing?

Seriously, who wouldn’t want to indulge when “research” means looking at cake like this?
