korean food / seoul / The colorful transformation of rice, 5 best rice dessert cafes – 2565

'Rice' is well known as Korea's representative staple food. The number of cafes that use rice, which was only enjoyed as a meal, as a dessert is increasing. Rice desserts initially began as healthy food for people who were gluten intolerant and could not eat flour. As bread and desserts made from rice flour were easier to digest than wheat flour products, places that are popular with ordinary consumers and specialize in them have sprung up. Rice desserts were initially favored and disliked because of their crunchy texture, but after a long period of research, they captivated the taste buds of customers by making use of their moist texture and unique flavor. Here are 5 of the best rice dessert cafes where you can enjoy the colorful transformation of rice.

1. Spreading sweetness, Sadang-dong's 'The Sora'

“The Sorah” uses wooden furniture and fabric accessories to create a cozy feeling. The signature menu, “Black Sesame Pumpkin Tart,” is finished by filling the tart paper with chewy pumpkin ganache and soft black sesame cream, then putting sweet pumpkin slices on it. Ganache, which wraps tightly around the tongue, and the unique aroma of black sesame go together harmoniously. The crunchy sweet pumpkin topping enhances the sweet flavor.

“Yeonnam Dabang” is very popular on social media due to its retro interior. The signature menu is “milk rice cake,” which has a white cake sheet and fresh cream piled up in visuals that are reminiscent of Snow White. Thanks to the fresh cream, which has a sweetness that is not burdensome, it stands out for its light flavor. I also like “dabang waffles,” which are waffles baked with rice flour dough filled with ice cream, fruit, etc.

“Inlike” makes desserts without using flour, butter, white sugar, or preservatives. We want to capture healthy flavors by using “My Body's Favorite Dessert” as a general rule of operation. The signature menu, “Mugwort Cake,” is a dark green mugwort cake sheet filled between with mugwort cream. The fluffy cake sheet and the gentle scent of mugwort are appealing.

“Smoothly” uses Korean ingredients such as pumpkins, black sesame, red beans, and sweet potatoes to bring out our unique flavors in desserts. With the exception of rice bread, all of the menus have been made gluten-free. The signature menu is “soybean seolgi,” made by piling up black sesame sheets and soy cream, then sprinkling soybean powder. The savory soy cream covers the black sesame cake sheet with moisture and melts softly.

▲Price: 5,500 won for soybean snow, 5,500 won for snow white

▲Review (Shikigami bsjkj621): The family house was renovated and has a nostalgic atmosphere. I liked the crunchy texture of the cake itself, and I was impressed by the traditional savory flavor of the soybean paste. It's not very sweet, so adults will love it too!

“Sweet Cake” presents cakes and baked goods using 100% domestic rice. You can enjoy desserts that vary from season to season using a variety of seasonal fruits such as cherries, kiwis, strawberries, and lemons. The signature menu is “pure white cake,” which draws attention with its pure white appearance as if it had snowed. It has an addictive flavor of fluffy yet soft cake sheets and fresh whipped cream.
