This carrot cake is full of sweet, orange-colored carrots, and you can enjoy it dry and sometimes chewy depending on the sheet you make it on! The fragrant cinnamon-scented cake goes well with the sour and rich cream cheese frosting and the soft, sweet cream cream. Today, I'd like to introduce a carrot cake restaurant that will make you feel refreshed in the humid and changeable weather!
1. Dosan Park, 'Cecicella'
This cafe is famous for its carrot cake, often referred to as “carrot cake = cecicella.†It is located in Dosan Park with a stylish interior that seems to have been moved from a foreign cafe. The most popular menu item is the “carrot cake,†which has a chewy sheet and a thick cream cheese frosting. Shredded carrots and walnuts were added to the sheet to add texture, and the subtle cinnamon scent added flavor. The large American-style size is also an attractive point. You can add a savory and sweet flavor by dipping a little bit of the soft cream that has been placed as a decoration. Note that Cecicella's cake is baked twice a day at 11:00 and 7:00.

▲Location: 10-4 Dosan-daero 45-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul ▲Opening hours: 11:00-23:00, closed for holidays ▲Price: Carrot cake 8,800 won ▲Review (Kimmindi Titi, the god of food): I really don't think Cecicella's carrot cake can catch up with in Korea! It's a bit pricey, but it's a really moist sheet and something in the middle! It's really delicious when you dip it in a fantastic combination of rich cream and eat it~ As soon as you put in one bite, you'll “hmm†♥
2. Agate, 'anise'
“Annise (Annise)†is a cake specialty store and cafe located in the Hannam Heights shopping district. The clean, navy exterior exudes an exotic feeling. The owner, who graduated from Le Cordon Bleu, bakes scones and cakes directly at the store, so the moment you enter the store, you can feel the warm atmosphere that surrounds the store with the fragrant smell of bread. The most popular menu items are “Red Velvet Cake†and “Carrot Cake.†The carrot cake, which has a heavy texture as if it had been firmly pressed, adds a chewy texture of sliced carrots and walnuts, and completes the rich flavor with a subtle cinnamon flavor.

â–²Location: 160 Dokseodang-ro, Seongdong-gu, Seoul â–²Business hours: 09:00 to 21:30 on weekdays, 10:00 to 21:30 on weekends and holidays, closed on Tuesdays â–²Price range: Red velvet (slice) 5,500 won, carrot cake (slice) 5,500 won â–²Review (Florence Shikigami): There are many types of cakes, and there are many cookies and muffins, but I only tried the cakes, and they were so delicious. I wanted to buy them all in one pan! It was a bit hard to find, but it's delicious, so I want to come back next time.
3. Mangwon-dong, 'Amton'
“Amton†is a small cafe in Mangwon-dong with good lighting. A small table and interior accessories placed all over the place add to the atmosphere. The signature dessert menu here is “carrot cake,†which is a dense sheet topped with rich cream cheese frosting. Walnuts studded with grains add a chewy texture, and a subtle cinnamon scent in the middle reveals a strong presence. The whole thing is heavy, so I recommend ordering it with unsweetened coffee or tea. The “green tea tiramisu†topped with matcha cream cheese mousse and brownies topped with sweet vanilla ice cream are also popular.

▲Location: 37, World Cup-ro 15-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul ▲Business hours: 12:00 to 22:00 every day, closed on Tuesdays ▲Price range: Carrot cake 6,000 won ▲Review (Shikigin Kongguk & Sugar): “Amton,†which has become a favorite cafe in Mangwon-dong, usually takes a break on Mondays, but it's closed on Tuesdays! Business hours sometimes change from 11:00 to 22:00, but I think you can check the boss's Instagram:) I went to Egg Meringue with my sister Tung Yun the other day, and the owner of the egg meringue said it would be nice if they had gone there anyway.
4. Jeju, 'House Recipe'
“House Recipe†is located on the coastal road on the west side of Jeju Island. Carrot cake is made using carrots produced in Jeju. Carrot cakes are sold in sizes ranging from pieces to large, medium, and small, so you can buy whatever amount you want. You can also enjoy carrots that have a soft texture and a light flavor that is not irritating, and are crunchy in the middle. The soft cream cheese inside blends well with the cinnamon-scented sheet, adding flavor to a cake that may make you feel bored. The sweetness isn't excessive, and the overall flavor is harsh, so I can focus a little more on the carrot flavor. There is a place inside the store where you can eat, but many people usually take out.

5. Meeting, 'band-aid'
A vegan dessert cafe that does not use animal ingredients. The most popular menu items are “caffeine-free barley coffee,†which has a savory flavor made by roasting grains other than coffee beans and “vegetarian carrot cake†without butter, milk, or eggs. It has a chewy texture and is topped with soft cream, making it a popular dessert menu along with scones. The characteristic of carrot cake itself is that it is moist yet has a chewy texture like mochi. There are stands all over the cafe, which has a cozy atmosphere, so it's a great place to visit alone to read a book or study.
