burning dessert

My carrot cake was very tasty. Moist and rich and spicy. But ovens in Oman get hot, really hot. And on top of that they just have a hot to really, really hot temperature spectrum. No Fahrenheit gauge to speak of. This mean that you end up more often than not with a perfectly done inside and top, and a charred bottom.

Nobody ate my carrot cake. Except me, that is. Someday I will conquer the Omani oven.
