Notes

1. 🍬I made a carrot cream to step away from the traditional recipe. I won't include it because it's long and a bit complicated 😅
2. 🍬The flour I used is Carrefour brand gluten-free flour for cakes, I tried it once and it seems ideal for cakes, but you can use whichever brand you prefer 🤗!!
3. 🍬Food coloring used: Sugarflair (gluten-free)
