google, Edmonds carrot cake recipe. Edmonds are an old NZ company and they produced a cook book with the recipe. littleone have you made the carrot cake from the Edmonds cookbook? Is that how you know or do you have some inside 'dirt'!!?? I actually have a copy of the Edmonds cookbook and the butterfly cakes were my favourite too - it was the first thing I learned to bake! I dont have dirt, well maybe a little. I usually make the Edmonds but also sometimes use the delicious magazine receipe, which can be found at taste.com.au. Unfortunately I cant make the butterfly cakes they turn out like flat mini frisbee's. My whole family cant make a sponge to save ourselves, doesnt matter what recipe we use they are just disasters. Can make a mean Pavlova though!

Given the price the Lime Tree charges of slices of its cake, the recipe presumably contains gold dust and unicorn's eggs.

I love Limetree because it reminds me of the goodies my Mum and Nanna made when I was a wee little girl in NZ. try this: http://www.edmondscooking.co.nz/Default.aspx?PageID=1405288&A=WebApp&CCID=3374&Page=2&Items=4 the butterfly cakes on the first page were my absolute favourite as a kid.

I've been trying to replicate their chocolate and coconut tart. I managed the chocolate part, but the coconutty pastry base (to die for!) is impossible. They aren't selling it in the cafe at the moment, so I need to get my fix elsewhere. Any recipe ideas? Sorry to hijack.

I don't know the Lime Tree Cafe recipe but in case you can't get a hold of it then this is a really really good recipe - I have had so many compliments when I make this cake, although I don't add the walnuts in the cake. http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/carrot_cake/

I love the carrot cake from LimeTree café and was wondering if there is a chance of getting the recipe for it? Have they published them or does someone by any chance have it?
