Cream cheese apple choux at FLU:ET, a Busan dessert shop in Sajik-dong

FLU:ET / Location: 54 Sajik-ro 70beon-gil, 1F FLU:ET, Dongnae-gu, Busan, South Korea / Hours: Daily 10:00–19:00, closed Sundays / Parking: not available

I'm a huge dessert person, so whenever I hear about a new dessert spot I can't just walk past it 🍪 I'm often around the Sajik area, and when I heard a new dessert shop had opened in Sajik-dong, I went straight there.

Where is FLU:ET? A small storefront by Sajik Stadium

FLU:ET, a cute dessert shop near Sajik Stadium, was easy to find since it's right by the stadium.

It's a great location for grabbing drinks, snacks, or dessert to go before or after a game at Sajik Stadium ⚾️ The exterior is also cute and tidy-looking.

Inside FLU:ET: a compact, takeout-only counter

Inside, FLU:ET is compact and clean. There's about one table, so it's basically a takeout-only shop.

There's a showcase right up front where you can see all the choux, fruit syrups, and drinks on offer.

Being able to see the menu with your own eyes and choose makes it easy even on a first visit.

Four choux flavors picked at FLU:ET

There were more choux flavors than I expected — choux is clearly the main event here. The menu I picked was:

• Plain choux
• Earl Grey choux
• Cream cheese apple choux
• Boseong matcha choux

These four 🤍

Each flavor has its own personality, so I ended up wanting to try several instead of just picking one. What surprised me most at first sight was the size — each one was bigger than I expected, so just looking at them felt satisfying.

It didn't feel like finishing one small dessert and being done — it felt like properly enjoying one substantial choux.

Plain choux

First, the most basic option — plain choux! On a first visit, you've got to start with the classic, right? A great pick for anyone who likes a clean, light flavor without any fuss.

FLU:ET reportedly picks every ingredient carefully to make its desserts, using French cream and New Zealand butter for a soft, rich flavor.

The more basic the choux, the more the ingredients matter. So it seemed like a good idea to start with the plain one before moving on to the other flavors.

Earl Grey choux

Next, my favorite — Earl Grey! If you like that fragrant Earl Grey flavor, this one will catch your eye 🫖 A combination of sweet dessert and subtle black tea aroma that seemed like it would pair well with coffee or tea.

It has a totally different vibe from the plain one, so it seems like a good one to add when packing several to take home.

Cream cheese apple choux

And the one whose name alone made me curious — cream cheese apple choux 🍎 The cream cheese and apple combination gave it a different feel from a typical choux.

If you like the combo of soft cream cheese with apple, this one should suit your taste. With such a variety on offer, it's fun to pack a few and pick one to eat at a time.

Boseong matcha choux

Matcha lovers, this one's for you — Boseong matcha choux 🍵 A good pick if you like the slightly bitter, fragrant taste that's distinctive to matcha.

When people think of choux desserts, they usually think of something purely sweet, but having flavors like Earl Grey or matcha with a different character widened the choices.

How well do FLU:ET's choux travel as takeout or a gift?

The choux keep their shape well when packed to go, so this seems good both for eating yourself and for gifting 🎁 A nice, not-too-fussy option when you want to give a simple dessert gift to a friend or family member — or pack a pretty box with a mix of flavors to bring along.

If you're looking for somewhere in Sajik-dong to pack dessert from, FLU:ET seems like a solid choice. Being close to Sajik Stadium makes it especially convenient to stop by before or after a game to grab dessert to go.

With generously sized choux, a good variety of flavors, and each one neatly packed, it works well both as a snack and as a gift. Above all, I liked that each piece was big enough to feel like a proper dessert 😊

If you're like me and love hunting down new dessert spots, give the newly opened FLU:ET in Sajik-dong a try. A cute storefront, a clean takeout shop, and generously sized, varied choux — a great place to pack dessert from whenever a craving hits in Sajik 🤍
