Carrot Cake with Coconut Cream

12 servings

60 minutes

The best role of carrots, which is revealed here one hundred percent. Cinnamon, coconut and fresh orange juice help it in this. Vegetarian, but not at all dietary (vegetable oil is also fat), this dessert reveals the inner world of carrots in a way that, perhaps, even zirvak does not reveal a good pilaf.
