No our school is nut free, but I just omit the nuts and it is still really tasty

This is the BEST carrot cake ever!! So easy and so yum. I've made loads of carrot cakes and they are usually pretty tasty but this wins hands down. The only things I change is to cut down the sugar to 100g of rapadura or brown sugar and to add extra nuts in at the end because we love crunching on big bits of nuts! Thanks for posting such a great recipe.

Glad to have your endorsement.  All I need is maple syrup and I can try this one.  Sounds very yum.  :)  Thank you.

Going to make this on the weekend for hubby to take to work for his morning tea treat every day.

In the past when I make carrot cake the cream cheese icing goes thin, yellow and cracks after a few days in the fridge. Would I be better to freeze individual slices?

Yeah I was going to do a double batch and do 1/2 as muffins and a cake as I am sure it will be yummy and go fast :)

Freezing the cream cheese icing - would I just wrap the cake slice/muffin in glad wrap?

Thanks for bumping this - I'd forgotten all about it and it's such a great cake.
I've just made one for dessert tonight.
