Coconut Carrot Wedding Cake image

Found this recipe on on a OAMC website, 30daygourmet.com. except I used fresh grated carrot, instead of the baby food. This cake is a sure hit! It's very rich and filling but you just can't seem to stop eating it. This will be my only carrot cake recipe from now on. Excellent for freezing ahead.
