A must-visit cake shop in Hongdae: Fig Cake or Cake with Figs

Discovered a super girly💕 cake shop near Exit 2 of Hongdae. The entrance looks like a foreign coffee shop, with dreamy pink tones that make it picture-perfect from any angle!

This place specializes in colorful fruit cakes, each big enough to share between two people. The cakes are packed with fresh fruits, and the new seasonal flavor, fig, is a standout. One of their fig creations is a cheese mille-feuille cake, and I honestly can't tell if it's a fruit cake or a cake made of fruit 😍😍. The figs are in season, offering a uniquely sweet and fresh taste. However, they sell out quickly, so make sure to visit early!

With the weather being cooler lately, I recommend sitting at the outdoor tables. If you're wearing a dress, it makes for a perfect photo op, and the gentle breeze adds to the comfort☺️.

We couldn't resist trying another option: the melon fruit cake. The cream in this one is infused with melon, giving it a rich yet not overly heavy flavor. The cake itself is light and airy, and the refreshing melon makes it so easy to finish without realizing it 😂.
