	Lorraine Pascale's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Zebra Cake by Bella I love making cakes that are a bit different but with cakes I always seem to revert back to my old favourites.

	Carrot cake by Dominika Carrot cake is quite a "heavy" dessert and it sounds much healthier than it really is. The high content of oil, sugar, full fat cheese and walnuts are miles away from the low fat diet. That is why I don't bake it very often.
