• A 12" and 6" 2-layer cake requires over 1-2lb bag of carrots and 3 recipes.


• one recipe makes 1-10" plus 2-6" layers.


• one recipe is not quite enough for 1-14" layer 2 mixes makes 1-14" layer plus 1-10" layer *One bag of carrots makes 2 recipes and a little over For a 2-layer 14",10",6" cake, use 5 lbs carrots & 4 cups pecans+5 recipes.
