Heard about this place recently & wanted to come check it out. If you like carrot cake then look no further then Lloyd's Carrot Cake.
Scott the young man behind the counter hooked me up with a free slice of cake since it was my first time here. I appreciated that very much.
The carrot cake truly lives up to the hype. They started in the 70's & although the original owners have passed away, their kids continue the family business.
Grab a slice & sit down across the street in the beautiful Van Cortlandt Park & enjoy the cake & views.
I ordered food next door at Tortoise & Hare and got Lloyd's Carrot Cake for dessert.
The carrot cake was SO GOOD. I liked that there weren't any nuts or raisins in this one. Very moist cake and yummy, not overly sweet cream cheese frosting. Wish it tasted more like cream cheese but I also am a cream cheese fanatic! I just saw on Google Maps that they have a Manhattan location, too! I can't wait to go there and try their Red Velvet (my fave kind of cake) and see what other desserts they have 🤗
None better!
Honestly, I usually buy Lloyd’s carrot cakes or red velvet cakes for a holiday, a big family gathering! This is also when I am so stuffed that I can enjoy it…
Yet this week I was passing by, so how could I not stop in???
I picked up a small carrot cake with raisins and walnuts.
Then I had to invite family over!
It is- just as always fantastic!
It was our only dessert for the six of us, and there were still some left over!
