Steps:
- Line an 18cm square tin with baking parchment. Ask your grown-up helper to turn the oven on to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grate the carrots on the fine side of the grater, then tip them into a large bowl.
- Sift the sugar, flour, bicarb and cinnamon on top of the carrot, then add the orange zest and mix everything around a bit.
- Break the eggs into a bowl (scoop out any bits of shell), then add them to the bowl along with the oil. Mix everything together well.
- Scoop the cake mix into your tin and level the top. Ask a grown-up to put it in the oven for 30 minutes or until the cake is cooked. Cool.
- To make the icing, mix the butter and icing sugar together, then stir in the soft cheese until smooth.
- When the cake is cool, spread the top with the icing and cut into squares. Decorate with sprinkles, if you like.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan and Grease & line a large tin - I used a 9x13" Traybake/Roasting tin.
- Pour the Sunflower Oil & Eggs into a large bowl and add the sugar - mix lightly and combine.
- Add the Grated Carrots, Rasins, and Orange Zest and fold through to combine.
- Add the Flour, Bicarbonate, Mixed Spice, Ginger, & Cinnamon and mix again - try not to over mix!
- Pour the mixture into the tin, and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Sometimes it can take a little longer so test with a skewer!
- Once baked, leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, and then cool on a wire rack.
- With a stand mixer/electric whisk, beat the room temperature/softened Butter for a couple of minutes so its really smooth.
- Fold through the the Cream Cheese so its combined, or beat on a low speed. Stir in the Vanilla extract.
- Gradually add in the Icing Sugar and mixed spice till its all combined - try not to beat too hard, you'll want to do this bit by hand. I add usually about 500g, you want to add enough for it to be firm.
- Once the cake is fully cooled, slather the frosting on top. Smooth it over, and sprinkle on some chopped nuts (I used walnuts and pecans) and then give it a sprinkle of icing sugar!
