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 Oh, only seeing this now - if it is not too late, this is your go-to recipe: https://theloopywhisk.com/2023/03/19/easy-gluten-free-carrot-cake/

I make the one that it is based on (the one in the author's book), and so far every carrot cake lover has loved it. You can make it with various gf flour mixes (I have a standard store-bought one, works like a charm, read the recipe carefully about the role of xanthan).
