Cobalt (II) chloride dihydrated (purple colour) and with more water Cobalt (II) chloride hexahydrated (pink colour) .
It is because carrots contain water and there must be moisture present for this reaction to happen.
BLUE
Solid Cobalt chloride crystals are pink when hydrated with water. If you heat the crystal, the water of crystallisation in the crystals will evaporate, leaving you with solid anhydrous cobalt chloride crystals which are blue in colour.
Probable you think to hexaamminocobalt chloride: the color is orange.
The colour become initially purple and after (with more humidity) pink.
It changes color for Purple to Blue if it was heated and if it was cooled down then it will change color from purple to pink

water or water vapour will turn the blue cobalt chloride paper pink
What happens when you mix water and calcium chloride?Water colour does not change
