I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my carrot cake turned out really dense and heavy. The mascarpone icing was good though.

This carrot cake was a bit of a let down. The cake itself was bland and the mascarpone icing was too runny.

This carrot cake was just okay. It wasn't as moist as I would have liked and the mascarpone icing was a bit too heavy.
