With the natural sweetness of banana and carrot this is a super sugar free cake. Small slices of this cake are great for little hands to hold and make an early year’s sugar free tea time treat. Topped with sliced fruit and a candle, this would make a great sugar free 1st Birthday cake. For a sweeter cake, simply add one or two tablespoons of honey when you mash the banana.

I made this today for the first time. I was attracted by the recipe as it is genuinely sugar free with no sweeteners or other alternatives used. It’s a delicious cake with a nice ‘proper’ cake texture. Even my husband who has a sweet tooth liked it!
