The Carrot Cake Man, Templetown - Baker Vernon Wilkins' Carrot-Cake Cupcakes Available at Select Markets - Closed


Recommended Posts

Ah, I just remembered the big culinary disappointment of the weekend: the guidebook mentioned a shop called The Carrot Cake Man, where 100 different types of carrot cake could be found, including berry, walnut/pineapple, chocolate, etc. I found the shop; unfortunately, it is no longer open, and from the looks of things it's been gone quite a while. Bummer.

Still, you covered a lot of ground in Philly. Good for you, and thanks for posting your experiences. smile.gif

I was in west Philly a few months ago, sitting outside at Dock Street with a couple of friends when we heard a voice calling "Carrot cake!  Carrot cake!".  Our waiter could see that we were trying to figure out what was going on.  "Oh, yeah, that's the Carrot Cake Man! You should totally get some-- it's really good.  Just don't let my manager see".   So we called the Carrot Cake Man over...  Somehow he's selling large squares of cake for only $1 each.  We got a couple of the regular and a couple of blueberry.   Damn good carrot cake.  So, if you happen to see the Carrot Cake Man, get some!
