Today I tried Lloyd’s Carrot Cake on Lexington Avenue. The cake was amazing—moist, flavorful, and just packed with the right stuff. But the icing? A bit of a letdown for me. Still, Lloyd’s is up there among the best I have had, though I’m curious if there’s an undisputed champ out there, especially one with knockout icing.

now a legendary spot, its sad that the woman who ushered Lloyd’s to this level suddenly passed a few years ago, she was the best.. amazingly warm, always welcomed all, so sad. Now her family has taken over (? members of extended family?).. its still good, but the level of sweetness all around has gone up at least 25%.. too sweet for my taste, but I will still order the holiday carrot cakes!
Oh, you went to the outpost.. do try the one and only original on Broadway in the Bronx..
so fucking good, dude. hope you enjoyed it!
Adding to my list, thanks!
Too sweet, icing needs to be more savoury with cream cheese. Good for the price though.
Mia’s Brooklyn Bakery for the best icing imho
