Thanks to Jenn for sending me a sample of this, especially since I’d been thinking about buying it.
When I first opened the bag I got a whiff of something similar to the smell of paint drying. Not really a good sign.
I brewed this in an infuser basket for about 3 minutes with 180 F water. It is vaguely carrot-y and fruit-y but nothing very cake like is leaping out at me. I added some Vanilla soymilk and this has made it more like a dessert tea. Still the weird smell which is putting me off a bit.
This stuff is okay but I’m not totally crazy about it…

Glad I read this! I was going to order a tin of it. Ordering the smaller size instead… First order from Davids, so I’m still looking around.
you should read the other reviews on it. A few people totally hated it…
I like it for what it is, and not what it is trying to be. If it wasn’t called Carrot Cake, giving me the metal vision of what it should taste like, it would be a fine tea. I probably will buy a tin of it. Maybe just a bag. I do get in the mood for this, and I do like it with some sort of milk product, dairy or otherwise.
Hmmm… Read through the reviews. Sticking to the smaller size to begin with. : )
