    would prefer it without the sugar, which isn't really needed: carrots are quite sweet anyway. How about some nutmeg for extra taste? - 3/3/10

    I agree with some of the earlier posts...could do without sugar. I would think substituting with either Splenda or Stevia would be a good option but how would it affect texture. Also, instead of regular white flour, could either wheat, soy or almond Flour be used? would this affect texture/baking? - 3/3/10

    Way too much sugar! 1/4 c. should be enough. For variety, particularly with Easter lamb, I add chopped or dried mint to the carrots. Delish! - 3/3/10
