This week, you crowned carrot cake as the Kiwi baking recipe that fills you with the most nostalgia and joy . Bravo! But now, with that information, I’d love it if you could do something truly special to celebrate our 85th birthday. I’d love for you to bake us a birthday cake – perhaps the winning carrot cake – and then in the spirit of the Weekly, share that cake with someone else. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the idea of “Paying It Forward” – well, now…
