Raisins are a classic ingredient in carrot cake, but they&#39;re not the only option.Here are three things to consider when you&#39;re picking a substitute:1. How do you want your carrot cake to taste? If you want something spicy, try adding some dried chili peppers. If you want something sweeter, try adding dried cherries or cranberries.2. How does this ingredient look? Dried fruit tends to have more color than raisins do, so if you like the way that looks in your cake, go for it!3. What else is in your recipe? If there are other flavors included in your recipe, make sure that whatever you choose to put in its place complements those flavors well, but doesn&#39;t overpower them either!
