Shredded Carrot in Alhambra (Photo – ColoradoBlvd.net)
If you are planning a small, and safe, family gathering for any occasion you might want to check out the desserts at “The Shredded Carrot, A Sweet Bakery” .
By Julia McWilliams
Their signature cake is, of course, carrot cake and it is loaded with shredded carrots, walnuts and coconut topped with cream cheese frosting. It is moist and delicious. You can purchase a single piece or an entire, decorated cake.
In addition to cake, The Shredded Carrot has a variety of baked goods including cookies, cupcakes (mini and regular size), muffins, flan, and pies. Chantal’s New York cheesecake is available daily with strawberry, blueberry or blackberry sauce as well as Oreo cookie and other flavors. It is available by the slice, or as a mini or whole cheesecake.
Specially items such as whole pies, decorated cakes, and bread pudding with rum sauce need to be ordered a day or two ahead.
Located at 2428 West Valley Boulevard in Alhambra, just off Fremont Avenue, it is worth the drive.

I can fully endorse this bakery. Carrot cake is my favorite cake so I’ve tried it at many bakeries, restaurants, and home made versions. The one at the Shredded Carrot is AMAZING! I left them a review on Yelp as well but ran across this article and decided to comment. Check them out if you get a chance!
Thank you for the review and comment. Truly appreciate it!
