EDIT: Wow, thank you all for the many amazing and helpful suggestions! These are great, thank you! We do have almond meal, buckwheat and rice flours (we've got gluten intolerants/coeliacs in our household too) so we'll be able to try some of these recipes and ideas out over the next week or so. I'll update with the results :)

Kid2 is making a cake for her gluten-free friend and the friend has requested carrot cake. So far we've had two test cakes (it's for a special occasion so Kid2 wants it to be very good) and neither has been amazing. Edible? Yes. But not special occasion-worthy.

Does anyone have a failsafe gluten free carrot cake recipe? Boosts very much appreciated

@teadrinker others already gave you the tips i had, except one: if you can find it, buckwheat flour is gf and has an amazing taste that goes very well with carrot cake
