Preheat the oven to 175 degrees celsius. Grease the spring form cake tin with butter and dust with a layer of flour.
Mix the eggs, sunflower oil and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract together in a large bowl, using a whisk. Mix in flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, a pinch of salt and the ground cinnamon.
Stir the grated carrots into the mixture and pour into the greased spring form cake tin.
Bake the carrot cake for 40 to 50 minutes in the preheated oven at 175 degrees celsius. Check whether the carrot cake is ready by piercing the centre with a wooden skewer.
If the skewer comes out clean, then the carrot cake is done. Leave to cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
Add the butter, icing sugar, cream cheese and a teaspoon of vanilla extract to a medium bowl.
Beat until creamy and smooth. Cover the cooled carrot cake with the cream cheese frosting, and add some grated carrot strands for decoration. Enjoy!
