I made the carrot paste and it was, in my opinion, a great success. I
did cheat and use a mixture of sugar and honey, rather than honey
entirely. My recipe and comments are at:

It's the second recipe on the page.
I mentioned some of its beneficial medicinal effects in the menu :-)
A friend of mine made her own version, using less spice... i
preferred my own, but i think that's not unusual. She probably
preferred her own.
