Gongdeok bakery café gift wrapping for pastry boxes: Fluffy Bake Shop

A while back I arranged to meet a friend near Gongdeok Station — it had been ages! On my way there, I wanted to bring her something sweet to show how happy I was to see her. Conveniently, right near Exit 2 of Gongdeok Station is Fluffy Bake Shop, a bakery café known for its baked pastries, so I stopped in.

It happened to be a great chance to try Fluffy Bake Shop's delicious pastries, so I went in excitedly, planning to pick up a gift for my friend and treats for my family too.

Baked goods and butter at Fluffy Bake Shop near Gongdeok Station

Fluffy Bake Shop is a well-known Gongdeok bakery café for its fresh, in-house-baked pastries and its salt bread, crisp outside and soft inside, straight out of the oven.

• They say they use premium AOP-grade Lescure butter, which shapes the dessert's flavor, and bake fresh with care every day.
• There was an impressively varied lineup — 16 kinds of madeleines, 9 kinds of financiers, and even 3 kinds of canelés.
• True to its reputation as a hot-spot bakery, by the time I arrived around 3pm, a lot of the pastries had already sold out fast! If you want to try a wide range of menu items, I'd recommend visiting a bit earlier.

How does Fluffy Bake Shop wrap pastries for gifts?

I asked them to wrap gifts for both my friend and my family, and I was touched watching the owner carefully package each piece so the shape wouldn't get crushed.

• From a 4-piece pulp lunchbox to 6- and 15-piece boxes made for shopping bags, they had everything — perfect for picking based on the occasion, whether it's a light dessert gift or a more upscale thank-you gift.
• Since it's a popular bake shop that sells out quickly on the same day, if you need a large order for a company meeting, school event, or group gift, I'd recommend inquiring and reserving at least 3 days ahead so they can prepare fresh ingredients!

Where is Fluffy Bake Shop, and where do you park?

Fluffy Bake Shop is located at 8 Baekbeom-ro 31-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, near Exit 2 of Gongdeok Station.

I took the subway this time, but the building (SK Leaders View Complex 2) offers 1 hour of free parking in its underground lot, so it's convenient for those driving too.

Are pastries still in stock if you visit in the afternoon?

Yes! As a popular bakery café, the popular madeleines, salt bread and financiers can sell out early in the afternoon, so if you want to buy a variety, it's best to visit in the morning if possible.

Do thank-you gifts or large group orders need a reservation?

If you contact the store at least 3 days in advance so they can prepare the fresh AOP butter and ingredients, they'll perfectly wrap your choice of the 4-, 6-, or 15-piece boxes.

Is there parking at Fluffy Bake Shop?

Yes, 1 hour of free parking is available in the underground lot of the SK Leaders View Complex 2 building where Fluffy Bake Shop is located.
