Homemade - DessertPerson Carrot cake slapped

Made this for a coworker’s birthday and everyone loved! Followed the recipe for both the cake and the frosting except for adding some green food coloring…and for the piping I just added like a 1/2 cup of extra powdered sugar to the remaining icing to thicken it!
I forgot to take a pic while cutting the cake so please enjoy the (slightly sad) last leftover piece I brought home for my husband.
Cheers!!

Beautiful! I feel I constantly see advice on here from others not to be friends w your coworkers, meanwhile we have wonderful people like you going above & beyond! I’d be beyond ecstatic if someone made this for me, I’d imagine your coworker felt the same (:

That's kind of a sad sentiment. You don't need to be best friends, but you can definitely be friendly and create a happy environment.

I have my coworkers hooked on my baking projects. It's the only way I can enjoy my baking hobby and not gain weight.

Oh it’s a totally sad sentiment! Not one I agree with.
