These are the perfect double bite size treats. This Carrot Cake recipe is just like the bakes version with a soft fluffy sweet carrot cake with raisins and walnuts but frosted with zingy lemon cream frosting.

Instructions
Carrot Fairy Cakes
Add all the ingredients in a bowl and massage together to blend. Shape into 1-2 tbsp size balls and lightly press into the fairy cake molds. Set in the fridge until ready to frost.
Lemon Frosting
In a personal blender, process the cashews into a flour. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend for a few seconds. The frosting should have the consistency of yogurt. Using a teaspoon, spoon the frosting over the top of each fairy cake and smooth over the sides with the spoon. Place in the fridge until ready to eat.
