Carrot Cake Cupcake

Carrot Cake Cupcake

EverydaySweetened

Carrot cake cupcake is a spiced dessert featuring grated carrots baked into a moist, sweetened batter typically flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. While the carrots provide modest fiber and beta-carotene, the addition of cream cheese frosting and refined sugars makes this a high-carbohydrate treat with notable saturated fat content. These cupcakes often include mix-ins like walnuts or raisins, adding texture but increasing calorie density and potential allergen risks.
