Here’s a video with staffer Ivy Odom showing both cakes, with a taste test comparison toward the end of the video.
The queen’s cake includes grated coconut and shredded carrots as key ingredients plus nutmeg and cinnamon. It also has only one layer of lemon-flavored cream cheese frosting on top.
Odom says the decadent buttermilk glaze takes the Southern Living carrot cake over the top.
However, she also appreciated the more minimal frosting on the queen’s carrot cake, which has a tang from the lemon in the cream cheese frosting. Odom also liked the chewy texture of the shredded carrots and coconut in the queen’s carrot cake.
Here’s a video on how Southern Living makes their carrot cake.
“This is the carrot cake that they need to be serving the queen,” Odom declares in comparing the cakes.
She gives the Buckingham Palace cake a 9 out of 10 but still says “The Best Ever Carrot Cake” from her magazine is deserving of the crown. Are the staffers favoring their own cake, though? Well, the recipe only has six reviews, but they’re all stellar: all six reviewers gave the cake five stars.
Which cake would receive your royal nod of approval?
