Original: Deceptively named , carrot cake more closely resembles a quick bread in method of preparation ( all the wet ingredients , such as the eggs and sugar , are mixed together , all the dry ingredients are mixed together , and the wet are then added to the dry ) and final consistency ( which is usually denser than a traditional cake and has a coarser crumb ) .
