Ozzy Osbourne's Favorite Cake Was This Classic That Sharon Used To Bake For Him - Tasting Table
Briefly

Sharon Osbourne baked a classic carrot cake that became Ozzy Osbourne's favorite treat. Footage from Episode 19, Season 2 of The Osbournes shows him grabbing a large slice and saying, 'I love carrot cake. I could quite easily devour that.' In 2004 Country Cow Creamery created two ice cream flavors for the couple after Ozzy requested a cinnamon-and-carrot-cake variety called 'Ozzy's Carnivorous Carrot Cake.' After his death some bakeries offered free slices in his memory. Sharon's original recipe remained private, but clues include a dash of cinnamon, adding lemon juice to preserve carrot color, and beating three eggs.
In Episode 19 of Season 2 of "The Osbournes," viewers watched as he exclaimed, "I love carrot cake. I could quite easily devour that," while grabbing a hefty slice off the kitchen table. His obsession was so deep-rooted that, in 2004, Country Cow Creamery offered to name two ice creams after the couple, and the heavy metal star requested a "cinnamon and carrot cake flavor." The ice cream company called it "Ozzy's Carnivorous Carrot Cake."
Given Ozzy's request for cinnamon in his carrot cake-flavored ice cream, it's safe to assume Sharon added a dash to her recipe. Secondly, at the end of that same episode of "The Osbournes," there was a snippet of a cooking show played on TV. Rather non-subtly, it showcased the process of baking a carrot cake, and although a full recipe wasn't shown, it did drop some golden advice.
