Such a phenomenal place. My mother took me here when I was a child, and I took my children here when they were growing up. The meats and bakery are the best quality around.
My daughter recently graduated high school. She also passed her state boards for cosmetology. When we were deciding on a bakery to order her cake from, we chose Leach's because of past experience, and a lot of recommendations. She wanted a banana cake, with pineapple filling with whipped cream icing. When I placed the order for the cake, I asked if they were able to do a some cosmetology decorations. The woman I spoke with said that their best decorator wouldn't be there that day, so no, but she would design and decorate the cake really nice for her. The morning of the party, they called and asked if I still wanted to do the cosmetology decorations because they were able to do them. I was super excited about it, and therefore couldn't wait to see the cake. I was running behind when I went to pick up the cake. I briefly glanced at it, and was immediately disappointed, but I told myself it was because I was already angry/upset because I was running behind, and I HATE being late for anything!! We get to the park, I get the cake set into dry ice . I tell my family that my initial reaction to the cake wasn't very nice, but I thought maybe it was just me being behind. I lifted the lid to show them and everyone was silent!! The cake was decorated horribly!! There was a gigantic blow dryer, a tiny pair of scissors that appeared as if they had been drawn on and removed several times. There were tiny flowers in all 4 corners, and the writing was not as neat and professional as you would expect coming from a bakery. Honestly, it looked like I let my grandsons decorate it. I was so embarrassed that I never even took a picture, and left the lid partially on as we served the cake. We cut into the cake and there was so much pineapple filling in the middle of the cake, it absorbed the whole bottom layer of the cake, and was just mush. I paid over $100 for this cake, and was so disappointed. The taste was amazing, everything else was just terrible.
