As a general rule, it's not safe to consume perishable food items that have been left out at room temperature for an extended period, especially overnight. Cream cheese frosting, being dairy-based, is particularly susceptible to bacterial growth when left at room temperature.

Bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella can grow rapidly on food items like cream cheese frosting, leading to foodborne illness if consumed. Additionally, the moisture in carrot cake can create an environment conducive to bacterial growth.

To ensure food safety and prevent the risk of food poisoning, it's best to refrigerate perishable items like carrot cake with cream cheese frosting promptly. If the cake has been left out overnight, it's advisable to discard it to avoid potential health risks.

I hate cream cheese frosting and never use it but I never refrigerate cake (with buttercream or whipped cream frosting).
