In reply to Pandora. Hi Pandora, I'm not sure I know the recipe you are referring to. You could try adding raisins to this. I hope you try it!

Hi Kate, I really love your previous carrot cake recipe (with raisins/granulated sugar). Is it possible to post that version also please?

In reply to Harriet. I'm sorry to hear that, Harriet. It could be the difference between here and the UK like you said.

In reply to Kristie.

Unfortunately my cream cheese frosting was also runny. I used a stand mixer and wondered if I mixed it for too long. It never seemed to become light and fluffy as described. I also wonder whether the consistency of butter and cream cheese may be different in the UK? You’ve also suggested that a double batch is made for the carrot cake however I now have a lot of left over, runny cream cheese frosting that will probably go to waste. Thanks for your lovely recipes, I hope this one works out better for me next time.

I’ve just made your banana bread (sweetened with honey) and made this frosting for the top and it was great!! After reading comments I was worried it would be watery but it’s super thick and creamy. I purchased a block of full fat cream cheese rather than the spread style cream cheese in containers but no idea if this made a difference or not.

In reply to ML. Oh no! I'm sorry to hear this didn't work for you. It could be the slight difference in the ingredients. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Kate,

I want to say first how much I love your recipes. I have yet to make one that didn’t turn out! We love all your muffin and bread recipes. So I made this frosting today and it turned out a little liquidy. I also need to say that we live in Germany and the butter is much creamier and cream cheese is also richer. I do not expect you to be an expert about this, because it can be sooo tricky! But just wondering your thoughts on the ratio of powdered sugar to cream & butter – or how to thicken it up otherwise. Thanks so much!!
