    Candied Carrot Curls They're orange, sweet and go great on top a carrot cake. Or any winter cake actually. Take broad carrot shavings, around 15 of them and put aside. Bring 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar to a boil, till the sugar has completely dissolved. Add the carrot strips and simmer, uncovered for about 15 minutes. Strain through a sieve, discarding the syrup. Let it stand for about 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 225 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and align the candied carrot slices on the sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes, till the carrot slices are flexible and dry. Wind them around a wooden spoon till they look like curls. Put them back in the oven for 30 to 45 minutes till they're absolutely dry. Let them cool.

    Make a fresh batch of caramel and when it hits 340 F and golden in colour, it's ready. Remove it from the heat and let it cool till its thick. That should take around 5 minutes. Now, take a spoonful of caramel at a time and drizzle it quickly back and forth quickly. The caramel should fall as light strands and will solidify quickly.

    Pull the nest off the strands and set it aside to cool. You can use this to decorate both your cakes and cupcakes.
