It depends on what you are comparing it to.
It has more vitamins, minerals, and fiber than your average cake.
So it is a healthier choice to choose carrot cake if you are ordering cake anyway.
But like everyone else said, it still has fat, sugar, calories - It IS cake.
Compared to eating raw carrots and other veggies, carrot cake isn't particularly healthy.

I don't think carrot cake is that great for you, but i bet that it's better than the nasty stuff that you get at the store with the frosting that tastes like plastic. I think a nice homemade chocolate cake is better. If you're trying to get healthy, don't change for special occasions like a birthday if you don't like carrot cake, instead, eat healthy on regular days.

No not only does it have a ton of sugar, but 2 tons of oil.
Anything that tastes as good as carrot cake is never GOOD for you

No--just because it has carrots doesn't make it healthy. There is still fat and sugar. You could probably make a fat free one, though--however, the sugar turns into fat in your body.

No, because it has quite a bit of sugar and fat. But, it sure does taste great.

I don't know but it sure is good! Actually, I don't think there is any health benefit to it, that has been documented that is.
