Man, Leopold's used to be one of my all time favorites, but I have definitely changed my mind about this place. \n\nMy husband brought home Leopolds a couple weeks ago. A strawberry shortcake something and my all time favorite Leopold's eclair. Besides the prices that have increased my favorite item from there wasn't filled with custard. Now I'm not sure if they had other eclairs that didn't have the whipped filling but my husband told me that was the only one. Strawberry cake was ok, nothing that would give you a foodgasm and oh yea he got suckered into buying two macarons. The macarons were pretty good but at a buck fifty for one macaron smaller than a half dollar I'm ok without it. \n\nLast night my husband went to Leopold's again...he said he got a tres leches cupcake and this oreo caramel something. The cupcake was not a tres leches cupcake and I'm not sure if he heard the lady incorrectly or what but it was more of a coffee icing with a very dry chocolate cake on the bottom. TOTAL disappointment. The oreo caramel thing was a bit like a fudge...wasn't bad but it was very dense. For 9 bucks I know I can do better and I think that Leopolds has changed ownership? The sticker label says something else and then \"Leopold's\" so maybe that is what happened. In any case I feel awful for writing such a crappy review about a place that I used to love so much, but I know I can do better.
