• 8 g vanilla sugar,
• 15 g baking powder,

• 80 g fresh carrots,
• 250 ml sparkling water,

• 150-250 g icing sugar,
• 150 g vegetable cream cheese,
• 3 tbsp lime juice.

1. First, start by chopping the hazelnut kernels. Then put the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar and baking powder in a bowl, as well as the grated nutmeg, cinnamon and chopped hazelnuts. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees convection.
2. Next, wash the carrots (about 4), peel and grate them until you have about 80 g. Add these to the ingredients in the bowl and mix everything together. Add these to the ingredients in the bowl and mix everything together.
3. Consequently, add the oil and sparkling water and mix to a smooth batter.
4. Grease your cake tin with vegetable butter or oil and pat the tin with flour so that you can fill the tin with the batter and bake it on a medium setting for an hour.
5. While you are baking the cake, you can prepare the frosting. First, whip the vegan butter with a mixer and gradually add the icing sugar.
6. This step depends on your sensitivity. Pour the lime juice into the vegan butter from step 5. The more icing sugar you add, the airier the consistency will be.
7. Chill both the frosting and the cake and allow both to cool. Then spread the frosting generously over the cake and the chopped hazelnuts over the frosting. You can also sprinkle leftover chopped carrots on top of the frosting.
