Treat yourself to the goodness of carrot cake in this icy treat. Pineapple, carrots and pineapple juice are blended with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and a touch of less-fat cream cheese to create that signature carrot cake flavour. Freeze 3 to 4 hours, stirring and scraping mixture along the way to create a fluffy, shaved ice for serving in individual bowls.

CHEF's TIP!
