Tour Scotland short 4K Summer travel video clip, with Scottish music, of Carrot Cake with white cream cheese frosting on visit and trip to the Kitchen in my cottage in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Carrot cake closely resembles a quick bread in method of preparation, all the wet ingredients, such as the eggs and sugar, are mixed, all the dry ingredients are mixed, and the wet are then added to the dry, and final consistency, which is usually denser than a traditional cake and has a coarser crumb. As the cake is relatively moist, it can be conserved longer than many other types of cakes. The origins of carrot cake is uncertain there is an old English recipe for essentially a carrot stuffed with meat, but it includes many elements common to the modern dessert: shortening, cream, eggs, raisins, sweetener, dates and sugar, spices, clove and mace, scraped carrot, and breadcrumbs in place of flour. Many food historians believe carrot cake originated from such carrot puddings eaten by Europeans in the Middle Ages, when sugar and sweeteners were expensive and many people used carrots as a substitute for sugar.
