*Once cooled, this cake should be wrapped in cling film to retain the moisture then refrigerated in a cold refrigerator and consumed within 48 hours.
*Cassata Carrot Cake can be decorated with different types of frostings such as Cassata Miracle Frosting, Cassata Cream Cheese Frosting*, Whipped Cream, Cassata Buttercream, etc.
*Learn how to make your own Cream Cheese in Module 9 and Cassata Cream Cheese Frosting in Module 3.
* Do not use soya bean oil or groundnut oil for this cake, they will alter the taste.
*You can combine whole wheat flour and white flour in this cake, half and half.
* If your client is very health conscious you can use 8 egg whites instead of 4 full eggs.
*Dessicated coconut is optional but it gives extra fibre for the very health conscious client.
