  6. Put the carrots in the blender. Add to the mixture.
  7. Use a baking pan or silicon form (25 x 30 cm) and bake for about 45 minutes. Use a toothpick to see if the cake is ready after 45 min, if not bake 5 minutes longer. 
  8. Prepare the frosting. Make sure to cool down the cake before adding the frosting.
