Leach's Meats & Sweets

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.

Stopped in since I drive by everyday and was surprised how much was there. The two men behind the counter were amazing, knowledgeable & very nice. However, the older woman at the register wearing a mask was so rude and mean. I waited for about 5 minutes for her to ring me up as she was elsewhere and when she finally arrived, she made me feel as if I was inconveniencing her by purchasing product. I asked her how her day was going & she said “it would be better when she gets to go home”. What do you even say to that? Got my total, and handed her my card and she goes “nope different card. We don’t take that” which is no problem at all but she put her hand on her hip and sighed. I handed her another card and she snatched it out of my hand and ran it, handed me the card & receipt back and pushed me the bag and walked away. Leaving with a very bitter taste in my mouth.
