Did anyone else pick up the GOOD EATS little mag that the Reformer’s parent group put out?
Nice little article on local foodscene stuff with a decent writeup about bakeries by Cicely Eastman. Some tasty sounding recipes on other pages I intend to try are on other pages.
However, a small quibble – they used a European bakery photo to illustrate the local bakeries on page 4. Notice the signs in front of the baked goods have prices listed in Euros.
I am looking for a carrot cake recipe that makes the old style cake — dark (a warm brown color), dense, moist cake, (high carrot content, I think) and definitely NO PINEAPPLE OR COCONUT. Raisins and walnuts definitely OKAY. While the newer recipes are more like regular cake, they are not the carrot cakes from the 70’s that I remember and love (and are no match, either, as far as I’m concerned). .Does anyone know a local bakery who does or would make one with these requirements? This is for a 60th birthday, and the birthday girl really wants to relive the carrot cake experience.
Thanks for any leads or recipes.

As many people know, I like baking. The one aspect of it that makes me nervous, more than anything, is working with chocolate. It’s a finicky ingredient. It melts when you touch it, is very sensitive to temperature, and water will make it freeze up.
When I find easy ways of using chocolate to get great results, I’m thrilled. Just recently I took a break from summer pie-making to make a yellow cake with a chocolate frosting, and tried something new that I’d like to share.
I’m about to teach you a very simple but dangerously effective recipe for a fudge-like chocolate frosting.
