1 cup confectioners' sugar

1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp orange rind, grated
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter (or shortening)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups carrots, grated
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
1/2 cup raisins , floured (optional)

To make the cake, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a sifter place together the flour, baking soda, salt and spices.
In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar.
Add 2 unbeaten eggs to the creamed butter and sugar and mix.
Add the orange peel and carrots to the cream mix.
Now sift the ingredients in the sifter into the cream mix and fold it inches.
