125 gms  caster sugar

Teaspoon of cinnamon
Teaspoon of bicarbonate
Teaspoon of basking powder 
250 gms of grated carrots 

Mix the first 3ingredients together, and add the dry ingredients to the wet then mix well.
Pour into a greased and lined tin, and bake at 160o for 40 minutes, 
Test for done ness. And turn out when cold.
Ice with a mix of cream cheese, icing sugar and butter,with some grated lemon zest.
The cheese makes it rather wet,so make sure you have the consistency you wish for!
