I have tried keeping it for 2 days. I think it should be good for 2-3 days.

Usually the banana, carrot and cinnamon overpowers egg smell. So I am not sure why you were getting so strong egg smell. Usually we add some flavoring like cinnamon, vanilla essence etc to overcome smell

Hi SHilpa..
Am a regular reader of ur recipes and i love the way u present them. i tried this cake today as mentioned in the recipe. i added 3 eggs during the preparation but the smell of the egg was still persisting even after 2-3 hours after the cake was done. We were not able to take the smell of it..
Could u pls tell me what can be done to get rid off the egg smell in the cake..

Hi Shilpa,i want to try this cake….last time i had tried some carrot cake ,but with shredded carrots, i did not get the carrot flavor.
In this recipie, Can i puree the carrots n use..?( Carrots r pureed n used in Brazilian style Carrot cake which tastes yummy ) ..Also as iv read on ur site in som other cake/muffin recipie that bananas can be used to repalce eggs right….so can i reduce the eggs say to 1 or 2 in this recipie or maybe omit the eggs totally..?

Shilpa: I haven’t tried with carrot puree or bananas Bhakti. Give it a try.
