OLD-FASHIONED CARROT CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
A pleasingly moist cake, this treat is the one I requested that my mom make each year for my birthday. It's dotted with sweet carrots and a hint of cinnamon. The fluffy buttery frosting is scrumptious with chopped walnuts stirred in. One piece of this homemade carrot cake is never enough-better than all the other carrot cakes recipes I've tried!-Kim Orr, West Grove, Pennsylvania

OLD VIRGINIA CARROT TEA CAKE
I cut this out of the Vancouver Sun newspaper some time in the 80's. It is one of the nicest carrots cakes I've tried, and it really doesn't need icing.

VIRGINIA POUND CAKE
Rich and velvety, this cake contributed as much toward making Virginia famous as Brunswick stew. Since pound cake uses no baking powder and depends entirely upon eggs and air for leavening, its success depends upon the length of time it is beaten. If beaten by hand, an hour is not too long. Use an electric beater if possible. From the Southern chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.
