Fancy carrot cake

It's no secret....I LOVE Southern Living Magazine! It's the only magazine I read faithfully, cover to cover, every month. I love all the beautiful decorating ideas, gardening tips (even though I can't grow a plant to save my life), and Southern vacation destinations but what I most look forward to each month is the recipes!

A layer of moist carrot cake, a layer of creamy chocolate mousse and a streak of refreshing orange gelee to unite these two worlds.

Carrot cake decorations can look dated. But candied carrot peel rosettes are easy, help eliminate waste, and make a chic and elegant carrot cake decoration. Here's how to make fresh carrot peel rosettes to top your favorite carrot cake recipe, whether layer cake, carrot cupcakes, or squares. The recipe? Sugar, water, and carrot peels.
