Leon's Frozen Custard sign

Leon's Frozen Custard claims to be the "Home of the World's Finest Frozen Custard," as noted boldly on its signage.[2] Leon's offers the three "regular" flavors of vanilla and chocolate and butter pecan.[5] Butter pecan was added on a regular basis because it was so popular. On weekends, Leon's adds a fourth flavor.[2]
