Lloyd’s Carrot Cake

Best carrot cake I’ve tasted. It’s so moist and delicious. I’ve ordered this cake for most of my events and they never seem to disappoint me. The red velvet cake is great too.
MUST GO !!!

Love this place. The line gets crazy for the holidays but you can’t beat their cakes. Their prices are reasonable too.

Absolutely Heaven. order Early or be prepared to wait a minimum of 6 hours during the major holidays. Even with the line/​wait it’s a slice of heaven on earth. ordered a German Chocolate and Carrot Cake for Xmas. I picked up today 3 days ahead. The cakes refrigerate and freeze extremely well. All cakes other than carrot need to be ordered ahead. They are extremely diligent in the process so please don’t be rude should a wait exist. You don’t get quality products like this anymore. They work hard and I appreciate it so much that I travel from SUFFOLK County, NY as many others come from near and far. Lloyds is the truth.

Ahhh-​mazing. This place is TINY. As in, you take one step in the door and you’ve toured the whole bakery lol. The line goes down the block on holidays and weekends, and for good reason. Their carrot cake is ridonkulous! You have the option of getting it plain or with nuts and raisins, and I usually go with the plain to avoid problems with allergies/​preferences. The cake is so dense, yet moist. The icing is just out of this world. One sliver of cake is filling, so you can serve to more people and appease those dessert lovers. If you’re not a carrot cake fan, they offer other options like chocolate and red velvet, which I am going to try next time. It’s a trek to get here from Long Island, and parking can be a bitch. But it is so worth it.

I had to check out this place because Former President Bill Clinton always raved about it. He really knows what he’s talking about. Fresh ingredients and moist. It’s a very small place but the cakes are amazing. I prefer the plain just cause you can really taste the carrots and it’s not shadows by raisins and nuts.
Tried the red velvet, chocolate and coconut. They were good but the carrot cakes are the star!

When I used to have cross-​country practice in Van Cortland park the thought of having Lloyd’s Carrot Cake was sometimes the main motivator for running those hills. I continue to get Lloyd’s carrot cake for my birthday every year (and love that there’s also a branch in Harlem now, hooray) — sweet sweet memories!

Don’t bother reading this review, just go get the cake.
Have heard about this cake for years and a friend brought it over for dessert. It was incredible.
I was raised with Carrot Top Bakery’s carrot cake and I have to admit Lloyd’s is better.
Enjoy!

Delicious fresh (and I mean, still warm!) and cheap cakes. This is now my go to for any event where I’m serving or bringing cake. The medium carrot cake is huge and only $ 16!

If you’re in the Riverdale section of the Bronx and you got the craving for good homemade style carrot cake, then go to Lloyd’s.
Lloyd’s is a small bake shop that offers no seating inside. It’s pick your style of cake whole or ask for a slice to go.
Lloyd’s staff is extremely friendly. It must be that beautiful aroma that fills this bake shop that keeps permanent smiles on their faces. It put one on mine as soon as I entered.
I fell in love with their Carrot Cake. It tastes home made like your mother just baked it. Every ingredient it’s made with stands out in every bite. The cinnamon and the raisin will stand out the most. The frosting is a thin white layer and complements the almost bread– like cake without being too sweet or overpowering in flavor.
Lloyd’s offers whole carrot cakes in four different sizes and two different styles, such as:
Carrot Cake without nuts and raisins. Small 6″ $ 11.25. Medium 8″ $ 15.25. Large 10″ $ 22.00. XL 12″ $ 34.25.
Carrot Cake with nuts and raisins. Small 6″ $ 15.25. Medium 8″ $ 16.75. Large 10″ $ 24.00. XL 12″ $ 36.25.
Lloyd’s also sells other styles of cakes such as German Chocolate, Red Velvet, Pineapple Coconut, Strawberry Coconut, Chocolate Layer, Double Chocolate, Sweet Potato Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Apple Pie and Pecan Pie. Sizes and prices on these items will vary.
I personally can’t wait to come back and try more of their cakes and pies. The link provided below will give you additional information on Lloyd’s Carrot Cake.

After years of having Lloyd’s recommended to me, I finally got a slice of carrot cake and it did not disappoint at all. It was my first piece of carrot cake and I can only hope to be back for more.

Lloyd’s is a true gem. I feel like I’m stepping into a different world when I enter this shop (which is very small). There are cakes everywhere! And it’s as simple as it gets: pick out your cake, wait about 2 minutes for them to wrap it up, and go. Not only is the carrot cake DELICIOUS, it’s also very affordable.

Best carrot cake in the Bronx… Maybe the whole NY, too soon to tell. But we’ve been coming here for years and they never disappoint.

I just felt an explosion in my mouth! Just had a slice of the carrot cake & it was amazing. Its a little rinky dink shop with an out of date logo design but the fresh warm tasty cake makes up for it.

These carrot cakes are the best I’ve ever had. I love the added nuts and raisins on top. These cakes are moist and fresh and have an amazing flavor. Truly a great bakery and the ladies that work there are very mom like. (Bronx Location)

Went twice, first time got a slice of carrot, red velvet and double chocolate cake, the red velvet tasted to much like dye and the chocolate cake tasted dry the carrot cake wasnt to bad so i decided to give it another chance, 2^nd time i went i got a small carrot cake that couldnt have been more than 5 inches in diameter and a slice of cake which cost $ 15 the carrot cake tasted kinda old and wasnt to sweet the icing was good either if u want good good carrot cake snd other pastries i recommend you go to «carrot top» on 215^th st

Ok, I ate this carrot cake, and it is good. I don’t see what the fanatical hubbub is about, even though I love carrot cake. I’m glad I tried it, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. I would really like to try some of the other cakes though, like Strawberry Coconut.

This place masters the carrot cake
Only few choices but sure choices
Cake is perfectly humid and the cream is rich and creamy
Located in a forgotten side of Broadway
In front of a big big park, out of the craziness of the city a very quiet place must be very busy on summertime cause the vicinity of the big park
Where you can enjoy the carrot cake in summertime !!
Staff is mixed Jamaicans and Latinos and all very friendly
Ask if you want with nuts or plain
And go for the red velvet is BAAAADDDDDD

EVERYONE HOLD THE PHONE. They also make coconut cake. Go get you some coconut cake. It is insanely good, definitely by far the best I’ve ever had.
Back to the carrot cake…

Who knew that a hole in the wall could do so much business based on one thing? A slice of carrot cake for $ 2.75 with or without raisins and walnuts. They also offer other cakes, but the carrot cake is the winner here. Located down the block from the 1 and Van Cortland stop, it’s a great treat after a long day of work and commuting.

Definitely one of the best carrot cakes I’ve ever had. Perfectly sweetened!
An 8″ costs ~$ 16. They are made to order! Plus, you can get slices a la carte.
I think there could have been just a smidgen more frosting. It would have taken the moistness up a notch to complete awesomeness.
Nonetheless, this cake is not to be missed!
