Looking for a carrot cake recipe that uses crushed pineapple?

This was a really moist carrot cake recipe that as friend of mine used to make years ago. I know it had a tin of crushed pineapple which is what made it so moist, and it was made in a deep springform tin and iced with cream cheese icing (I know how to make the icing!)

can i use brown sugar in chocolate cake recipies?

which sugar is better for chocolate cake recipes white or brown sugar

Brown sugar (light, soft) works a lot better in chocolate cakes as it will make the cake richer and slightly more moist. However, dark brown sugar could make the cake taste more treacle-ish.

Caster sugar will give a light sweet cake.

The best sugar will really depend on what other ingredients you are using – for example, a chocolate cake based on oil rather than butter will work better with caster sugar whereas a chocolate cake with buttermilk and butter using a melting method will probably work best with brown sugar, or even muscavado sugar.

Anyway, hope you cake comes out nice!!

Quirky and fun food trends
Food trends are like New Year’s resolutions — they show up like clockwork at the start of a new year. From the trendy to the traditional, the austere to the outrageous (are we weary of fusion already?) food trends define our lifestyles in more ways than one.
