Raw Vegan Carrot Cake

As you might have noticed, I do not post too many sweets posts, and the reason being is that I am very picky with desserts.

However, when I fall in love with one, it’s hard to let it go. One example of that is this RAW VEGAN CARROT CAKE, which is also gluten-free! Normally cakes are overwhelmingly sweet and drain all my energy, but this one is super light and creates an explosion of flavors in my mouth.

I adapted this delicious recipe from www.gimmesomeoven.com. I did not want to use any type of flour, so finding this recipe was very helpful!
