Set oven to 350 degrees.

Combine carrots, pecas, coconut and pineapple, then put aside.

Beat eggs. Mix in white and brown sugars until smooth. Add oil gradually, beat until smooth. Beat in vanilla.

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Blend into egg mixture. Add carrot mixture.

 Bake for about 45 minutes, checking every 15 minutes. Use a toothpick to determine when ready: stick tooth pick in cake, if it comes out with batter/cake on it, the cake is not ready. If it comes out clean, the cake is done!
