Preparation

Screen ON

Step 1

Sift the flour in advance through a sieve. This will make the sponge fluffier and lighter. Chop walnuts with a knife, and peel and grate carrots.

Step 2

For the sponge, put sugar and eggs into the mixing bowl. Beat on high speed until fluffy.

Step 3

Then pour in vegetable oil and add flour mixed with baking soda and cinnamon. Mix the batter manually with a whisk.

Step 4

Add the prepared walnuts and carrots, and fold them into the batter.

Step 5

The batter should be fairly thick. It drips from the whisk but doesn’t spread immediately. If it’s too thin, the nuts will sink to the bottom. Add a little flour if needed.

Step 6

Line the bottom of a springform pan (7-9 inches / 18-22 cm) with parchment. Pour the batter into the pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 45-60 minutes. Adjust according to your oven.

Step 7

Remove the baked sponge from the pan, cool, and let it rest in the refrigerator wrapped in cling film or a bag.

Step 8

Slice the rested sponge into 3-4 layers. Soak the layers with sugar syrup, light caramel, condensed milk, or just water.

Step 9

For the cream, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar, then fold in soft cream cheese. The cream should be stable enough for layering.

Step 10

Spread the cream between carrot cake layers and assemble the cake.

Step 11

Decorate the cake to your taste and occasion! Enjoy your tea time!
