Description

I found this recipe in a book "Backen. Die Kleine Schule". I think it's quite simple and very delicious. I made this cake for a halloween party. I use orange jam and marshmallows fondant.

Instructions

1. Whisk the egg yolks with 85g sugar, the lemon peel and a bit of salt. Beat up the egg whites with the rest of the sugar. Add the whipped whites to the yolks-mixture. Mix the grated carrots and walnuts with the flour. Add this to the egg-stuff. Pour the mixture in cake form, bake it in 190 C oven for 50-60 minutes. When it cooled down, glaze it with the jam, then decorate with fondant or almond chips.
