I saw a friend and fellow Crossfitter, Sherry Fushimi, this weekend at Southwest Regionals and she told me she found a tremendous recipe for a paleo-friendly carrot cake. She was kind enough to bring me the recipe the next day and I went home that night and made it. She was right. It's tremendous. I brought the cake (without frosting) to work and to my Book Club and shared it with my non-paleo eating friends and they also loved it! The recipe is another masterpiece by Elana Amsterdam (http://www.elanaspantry.com/) but I modified it just slightly. You can find the original recipe on her website if you prefer.
