hmm it seems that you are interested in bakery. today everyone wants to be thin and no one wants to be fat so using melted butter and 3/4cup sugar is something that most of peoples will avoid. so i think you can put some cakes baking instruction based on sweeteners so even diabetic people can use them. here i will place one sugarfree carrot cake even without any sweetener :what you need : 1. 1/4 cup water2. 2/3 cup Canola oil (for less fat than butter)3. 2 cups of small pieces of carrot4. 2 cups raisins5. 6 eggs white7. 3 cups flour8. 2 tsp baking powderactually baking instruction is very easy just mix all of the above (or you can first mix the water and egg and then add some flour and mix again and then add other remaining materials) and bake at 175 degree of celcius for 25-30 minutes and then at 160 degree of celcius for another 10mins.
