THOUGHTFUL CONSIDERATION FOR BREAD.CAKE HOUSE, PÂTISSIER
Sweet, moist sponge cake
- or ‘castella,’
as it is known in Kore
- is loved by older people
for its tenderness as it melts
in your mouth.
Located in Ongnyeon-dong,
with a higher senior
population rate than
other neighborhoods,
‘Cake House, Pâtissier’
primarily focuses on
offering tender breads and
cakes among their main products.
The thoughtful consideration
of the bakery’s president,
Mr. Hwang Yeong-seob,
is identified through his
other products, as well.
His development
of Hongguk Rice Bread is
another prime example.
For this bread,
the dough is made with rice
- generally regarded as being
healthier than flour -
and ingredients like walnuts,
sweet potato,
and black sesame are
then added in consideration
for customers’ health.
Mr. Hwang’s gentle appearance
has also helped solidify
why he has been loved
by the local citizens
for the past 14 years.
