About CARROT SINGLE LAYER CAKE, CARROT

Meijer Carrot Single Layer Cake is a bakery cake sold under the Meijer private-label brand at Meijer supercenter stores in the Midwest. Meijer, Inc. is headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This product is a single-layer format of the classic carrot cake, with cream cheese-based icing applied to the top surface.

Sugar is the primary ingredient. Bleached enriched wheat flour serves as the structural base. Cream cheese frosting is a prominent ingredient, made from pasteurized milk and cream, salt, carob bean gum, and cheese cultures. Palm oil and soybean oil provide fat for both the cake and icing. Dextrose contributes supplementary sweetness. Dried carrots are the defining vegetable component. Walnuts are incorporated, adding tree nut content and a distinct crunch texture. Raisins add natural sweetness and moisture. Modified food starch serves as a thickener and texture stabilizer. Coconut is also listed as an ingredient. At less than 2%, the product contains beta-carotene (a natural colorant), caramel color, cinnamon, defatted soy flour, egg whites and egg yolks, citric acid, mono- and diglycerides, polysorbate 60, potassium sorbate (preservative), propylene glycol, guar gum, leavening agents, natural and artificial flavor, nonfat milk, salt, and water.
