Garosu-gil is the street that lies between Sinsa Station and Apgujeong Station. Lined on the street are shops with different brands of clothing, jewelry shops, and high-end designer brands. People also come here to find good restaurants, brunch, cafes, desserts. To many, this street is the perfect balance of shopping and eating. Let's take a closer look at one of the things that Garosu-gil is known for: desserts. Just from one look, they will captivate you! We introduce some of the more interesting and unique desserts that you will be able to find at Garosu-gil. As already seen on social media, there are so many unique types of ice creams with fun and new toppings. Have vanilla ice cream topped with a grey cloud of cotton candy (almost as if it resembles a cloudy thundery day). But, there's a twist; as the cotton candy melts, pop rocks start to crackle in your mouth and you can't help but be surprised by the sudden popping and crackling. Many of these dessert places also allow you to choose your own toppings, some including honey chips, raspberry powder, macarons, syrup, and more. Who knew that dessert could be so fun and go in so many different directions? There are also places that serve ice cream with cute animal-shaped figurines. This just goes to show that a good dessert experience is not always just about feeding the tastebuds, but also feeding our eyes and hearts.

This isn't just your everyday cake; it's a cake inside of a flower pot! This unique and clever design almost makes you not want to eat it and is one of the main reasons for attracting people's attention. Many people wonder what the "soil" portion of the cake consists of, and we will let you in on a little secret: it's actually tiramisu. Once people taste the combination of the tiramisu and the banana, they won't be able to put their spoon down.
The lovely sunflower resting on top of the patbingsu almost looks real and makes a normal bingsu eating experience a little more fun. The summer heat becomes a little more bearable with these cute and bright decorations.

The sweet fragrance of caramel fills the air, and caramel-lovers will find themselves lost in a paradise of caramel patbingsu, caramel roll cakes, and more. With its soft and moist texture and sweet caramel flavor, the caramel roll cake is probably the most popular item on the menu and is in fact their signature dessert. But, for those who do not have as big of a sweet tooth, the green tea roll cake tastes just as good and is more subtle in flavor, as green tea usually is. The bright yellow dome as pictured above is the CoCo Mango Gateau and consists of three layers: a chewy mango jelly on the outer shell, mango mousse on the inside, and the bottom layer is composed of a white chocolate and coconut mixture. With all of these bready desserts, we can't neglect having a strawberry smoothie on the side to quench our thirst. In line with this, don't forget to try some rich pound cakes that come in flavors such as green tea, fig and red wine, blueberry, vanilla, etc. It's sure to stop you in your tracks. A refreshing drink will also maximize your pound cake experience.
