  • Cream the Butter and Sugar: Creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is essential for creating a moist and flavorful cake. Make sure to cream them for at least 2 minutes on medium speed.
  • Grate the Carrots Finely: Finely grating the carrots will help them distribute evenly throughout the batter and ensure that they cook evenly.
