Mister Apple

Gah! I am so disappointed to give Mister Apple only three stars. I was so excited about stopping in here and getting a candied apple. Before Katrina, there was a yummy candied apple stand at Oakwood mall. I used to love the apples there because they were huge and had a super thick coat of candy on it. I just adored them.
I had been wanting to try Mister Apple for a while, but I never found myself in the mood for one whenever I was near their downtown location. Cut to a few days ago when I found myself near the Uptown location and I decided that it was a great day for a candied apple. I walked in and they have all kind of gourmet apples and treats. They had some dipped in chocolate and caramel, but I wanted my candied apple.
The girl behind the counter was so sweet and friendly. She wrapped my apple nicely and I was on my way, When I got it home and started to eat it, ALL of the candy coating fell off and I was basically just left with an apple and a pile of candy crust. I was so disappointed that I didn’t even finish it. Talk about a waste of nearly $ 5. I thought that maybe the heat of the day loosened the candy coating a bit, but I brought it right home after purchase. Maybe I should have just eaten it on site.
I would probably go back and get a chocolate apple or something, but sadly I am going to have to satisfy my candied apple craving elsewhere.

Another cheat spot, Mister Apple does all kinds of treats that are oh-​so-​delicious. Their specialty is apples done several different ways: my favorite is their creole praline apple, which is an apple smothered in pecan praline coating and then dipped in chocolate. Why it’s hard to eat healthy in NOLA…
They also have butterfinger apples, oreo apples, as well as pralines and lots of other sweet treats. They apparently do snowballs here as well. Super delicious. This Uptown location is also waaaaaay less crazy (no line) than their store in the French Quarter.
