Just wondering if anyone has a doctored up carrot cake mix recipe that you wouldn't mind sharing that works well under fodant? I have an order this weekend that's two tires and she want both carrot cake and I hear a lot of recipes are too moist for fondant

2 box Carrot Cake mix (16.5 oz)

1 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup water

1 cup canola oil

6 eggs

1 cup finely chopped walnuts (toasted nuts are better)

2 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple with juice

2 to 3 cups grated carrots

I make mine from scratch.  Not sure if you're interested. ..

I made my first ever carrot cake 2 weeks ago and made it square as I've not fondanted a square cake before.  The recipe I used is here - http://www.lindyscakes.co.uk/2010/01/11/a-kiwi-carrot-cake-recipe/ and it produced a really lovely moist and light cake.

Not sure if I am allowed to post links like this as fairly new to this site - so apols if I shouldn't.
