Episode 3. The British favorite carrot cake
When you take a bite of a carrot, it has a delightful sweetness! It's like a licorice that always appears
in cooking because of its beautiful color and flavor ~ However, there are many people who don't like the unique scent of carrots ~ Carrots are good for health. Is there any way to eat it deliciously? The answer is carrot cake !
Carrot cake is such an attractive dish that it is considered “the favorite cake of the British people.†When sugar was scarce, British people used the sweetness of carrots that grew well in their country to make cakes instead of sugar. It's low in moisture, so it doesn't crumble even when you put it on bread, and it has a moist texture. It is said that the recipe for
carrot cake was first discovered in the UK in 1892.. Carrot
cake has a pretty long history, right? ^^
Even in Korea, dessert shops with carrot cake as their signature menu are loved by many enthusiasts.
A soft, light and sweet carrot cake!
Let's take a look at carrot cake restaurants in Seoul with the Dessert Road Team today.
Relaxing cicella with carrot cake
The blue and yellow exterior of Cecicella has a fresh yet relaxed feel! It became popular when it appeared in a tweet from the chairman of a large company. There are stores in Dosan Park and
Pangyo Avenue Franc, and the place the Dessert Road team is visiting today is the Pangyo branch!
It's located at the back of the first floor of the Avenue Franc building, so even though I visited
on a busy weekend, I was greeted by a more relaxed landscape. As the weather got warmer, terrace seats were the most popular. When I sit indoors and look at the terrace, I feel like I'm having tea time in a European city. ^^ The interior, which combines sentimental photographs and vintage accessories, is cute and comfortable. Perfect for sitting around and enjoying chat~
Cecicella's signature dish is carrot cake! It's so popular that the carrot cake
comes out is written separately. Carrot cake is served at 11 a.m. and 7
p.m., so it's a good idea to check it out. (It
is said that they prepare large quantities these days when visitors are crowded.) Cecicella's carrot cake is a basic style where cream cheese is applied in layers on a cinnamon
sponge sheet made with fresh carrots and sprinkled with cinnamon powder to finish. There are a lot of pieces of carrots that are so big that they are clearly visible 😀

This is Cecicella's carrot cake! (8,800 won)
Carrots are awesome
One bite!
The sheet is moderately fluffy and the cream is soft yet not sweet, so it's nice to eat . Along with the
crunchy texture of carrots in the middle, it has a very subtle carrot flavor. The fresh cream that is placed on the side is made with only
a very small amount of sugar and has a light and refreshing flavor~^^
If you spread fresh cream on the carrot cake and eat it, it will be even softer and tastier.
(What do I have to give up in order to enjoy
it?! You have to give up calories, haiyu~ hahaha)
Women's Wannabe Jiyugaoka Hatchome
“Jiyugaoka†is a Japanese neighborhood where women in their 20s and 30s want to live the most. This place, which has the name “Liberty Hill †as a place name for Meguro Ward in Tokyo, is also the place where the dessert trend began due to the many beautiful and luxurious shops and restaurants created by
famous chefs.
The literal translation of Jiyugaoka Hatchome is “Jiyu no Oka 8.†It is a name created by combining Jiyu no Oka and the number 8 which means good luck in Japan. Starting with the Samsung branch, they have 13 branches in Korea, so it's a great place to easily visit nearby branches.
Attracted by the cute exterior, which looks like a toy store, you'll be greeted by the cute characters that fill one wall of the store. The cute, colorful props even add to the fun of watching.
In addition to the basic cheesecake and red velvet cake, there are a variety of cakes such as Nutellana , mint chocolate, and matcha, and the carrot cake here is also quite famous. Well, I'll try it!

Come to Liberty Hill
Fork crook – the feeling you feel when you push it ! If cakes from other places are fluffy like a futon, Jiyugaoka Hatchome's carrot cake is really chewy and crunchy. A thick layer of cream cheese blended with mascarpone, Philadelphia, etc. is spread on a sheet containing 80% or more of carrots.
Among the cakes at Jiyugaoka Hatchome, it is the cake that takes the most time and effort, so it also tastes great. However, it has the sweetest flavor compared to the other carrot cakes I'm going to introduce today. I think it would be better
to choose Americano for coffee!
If you cut it with a fork and put it in one bite, along with the sweetness of the cake, the hidden walnut kernels are chewed and chewy, bringing out the fun texture and savory
flavor. It's garnished with melon and strawberry syrup, so you can dip it once in a while when you get tired of the carrot cake flavor, but be careful because the sugar content gets too high!
The value of organic cafes in Nokdu Street
The value of opening a new door at Seoul National University's Nokdu Street. It's a place that sells healthy
desserts made with organic ingredients. Because of its purple exterior and wide open doors, it's worth a cafe that catches your eye! The name of the cafe was fun because it included the meaning of “coming †with loved ones and the meaning of the “value†of the food.
This is an organic cafe that uses only healthy organic products, such as flour, sugar , fresh cream, cream, chocolate, etc. It is said that all of the fruit juice that goes into the aid is directly soaked, so the sincerity is amazing.
The most popular dessert these days in terms of value is carrot cake.

Order carrot cake and farm cake!
Carrot cake that goes well with the texture of whole wheat and rich cream cheese (4,500 won)
Let's take a look at the carrots. Farm cake (5,000 won)
They sell two types of carrot cake, and one is “carrot cake,†which is a typical slice cake. The point of carrot
cake made using organic flour, whole wheat, domestic carrots, and organic sugar is that rich cream cheese is sanded to catch the scattered texture of whole wheat
Also, the new menu, Value Farm Cake, has cocoa powder and cream cheese on the top, making it look like tiramisu , and the visuals that look like they're picking carrots from a kitchen garden are very cute.
Both cakes have the same basic base flavor, and I really like the crunchy texture of carrots and the unsweetened flavor . Recommended when you want to cheer up with a cute carrot cake!
