Autumn Carrot Wedding Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

The idea of a carrot cake for an autumn wedding is immensely appealing, and if the bride and groom, or the guests, are huge carrot cake fans, this cake could suit any season. If your cake-decorating skills are not at the master level, this cake style is very forgiving. The use of a leaf tip to create beautiful ribbon-like stripes is easy enough to do, and this technique, along with a generous sprinkling of maple-toasted walnuts to cover the tops of the tiers, hides any imperfections.
