## In short

The Sunsu Bread (더순수브레드) is a vegan bakery in the Myeongseong Prugio shopping arcade in Chimsan-dong, Buk-gu, Daegu, selling sugar-free, low-carb cakes and vegan breads made with rice flour. The writer reserved a low-sugar fruit cake on Naver, picked it up and served it as a 600-day celebration cake for her 20-month-old, and both her pre-diabetic husband and the writer, who is dieting, could eat it without worry. The Sunsu Bread's low-sugar fruit cake contains no wheat flour, rice flour or sugar, yet its cream and sponge tasted better than expected.

## Picking up a low-sugar fruit cake at The Sunsu Bread on my father's memorial day

I reserved the low-sugar fruit cake from The Sunsu Bread (더순수브레드) on Naver ahead of time and picked it up at the shop in Chimsan-dong, Buk-gu, Daegu. The pickup day happened to be my father's memorial day, and the weather that morning was unusually clear and lovely.

I didn't plan it that way. I just got a good chance to try a sugar-free, low-carb cake, and the date landed on his memorial day. Well, there's no rule that cake is only for birthdays, and I thought it would be lovely to share it with the whole family, so off I went to collect the cake I'd reserved.

It's not in my neighborhood, but I pass this street fairly often, so I'd seen this vegan bakery in Chimsan-dong, Buk-gu, many times: The Sunsu Bread.

## What kind of vegan bakery is The Sunsu Bread?

The Sunsu Bread says it uses no eggs, butter, dairy, white flour, white sugar, artificial coloring or animal-based ingredients at all. Every morning it bakes with domestic rice flour, Korean wheat, natural sourdough starter and plant-based ingredients in their natural state. When I asked an acquaintance, she said it's a well-known neighborhood bakery in Chimsan-dong, Buk-gu.

I'd never paid attention to vegan bakeries, but since becoming a parent I've developed an interest in this kind of thing I never had before. So I thought this was a great chance to taste and experience vegan bread.

## Sugar-free low-carb cake vs. vegan gluten-free cake: what's the difference?

The Sunsu Bread's cakes come in two lines: non-vegan sugar-free, low-carb cakes and vegan gluten-free cakes. Besides vegan baked goods, the shop also sells all kinds of other desserts: Greek yogurt, açaí bowls, frozen yogurt, bagels, bingsu (shaved ice), coffee and other drinks.

### Sugar-free low-carb cake (non-vegan) — the one I tried

- No wheat flour, no rice flour, no sugar
- Sweetened with erythritol derived from nature, they say
- Said to be a cake anyone, of any age, can enjoy without worrying about blood sugar or dieting
- Varieties: low-sugar fruit cake, black sesame cake, cream cheese carrot cake
- The fruit on top of the low-sugar fruit cake may change from time to time

### Vegan gluten-free cake

- Made with rice flour and oat cream, no eggs or milk, they say
- Said to be a vegan cake that people with egg or milk allergies can enjoy comfortably
- Varieties: vegan fruit cake, vegan biscuit fruit cake

The non-vegan and vegan cakes each have their own character, so it's best to look at the differences carefully and choose the style that suits you!

## What to know when choosing bread at The Sunsu Bread

The display shelves at The Sunsu Bread mix vegan and non-vegan products, so read the product descriptions carefully before buying. Day-old bread is also sold at 30% off, so that's a cheaper way to try it.

Besides the wide range of breads, they were also selling spoon cakes, dujjonku (Dubai-style chewy cookies), oat milk, fruit juice and more.

Apart from the non-vegan dujjonku, white chocolate cookies and rice castella, most of the bakery items on display were vegan. Since this was my first vegan bakery, I asked the owner to recommend bread a 20-month-old could eat, and from the few options I also bought the vegan Kongkongi rice bread (콩콩이 쌀빵), the one I was most curious about, and picked it up along with the low-sugar fruit cake.

Cake and bread carefully wrapped, and off I went home~

## Vegan Kongkongi rice bread: taste and price (₩7,300)

The Sunsu Bread's vegan Kongkongi rice bread costs ₩7,300 and is a vegan loaf made with white rice plus chickpeas, green peas and kidney beans. Maybe because it's vegan, it's definitely much pricier than ordinary sandwich bread, but I bought it with the thought that I could feed it to my child with confidence, so it didn't feel like a waste at all.

When I tried it first, it was chewy, and the sweet beans were so good. My husband and I both enjoyed it so much. My child liked the bread part but refused the beans, probably not used to them yet, so I ended up eating everything she turned down. Yum~~

![Mildly flavored vegetable bread from The Sunsu Bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone-16-5r5sd-900.webp)

This is the vegetable bread the owner gave us as a freebie. Chewy bread with a mild, plain flavor, a bit like a vegetable steamed bun without the strong seasoning? My husband's reaction was a flat no, but personally I thought, oh! It's mild and tasty!

## The low-sugar fruit cake becomes my baby's 600-day cake

The low-sugar fruit cake was originally meant for the family at my father's memorial service, but I couldn't bring it along, so it became my child's 600-day cake the next day (two weeks late, but still).

![Pastel-toned box for the low-sugar fruit cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone-17-1fc1d-900.webp)

Isn't the cake box so pretty? I love pastel colors, so colorful and cute~

*Low-sugar fruit cake*

When I took the cake out, it was topped with plenty of fruit and wrapped so prettily. By the way, they don't just put any fruit on the low-sugar fruit cake; they say they avoid overly sweet fruit.

*The Sunsu Bread sugar-free, low-carb cake*

The fruit can change, so it may differ next time you buy, but my low-sugar fruit cake this time was packed with gold kiwi, Shine Muscat grapes and blueberries. They're all fruits I love, so I was very happy.

When did my baby grow up so much that 600 days have already flown by?? Between the chaos of parenting I can't celebrate and look after every milestone on time like I used to, but this time I was so happy to celebrate with such a lovely cake 💕

I usually try not to feed her grown-up food, but I thought, well, a little cream is fine, so I dabbed a tiny bit on and let her taste it, and her eyes went wide. Before we even ate, the baby's taste review was a pass, it seems.

## Is the sugar-free, low-carb cake actually good?

The Sunsu Bread's low-sugar fruit cake had very smooth, moist cream, and the sponge was soft enough too, so it was tastier than I expected. I'd been so, so curious what a sugar-free, low-carb cake would taste like, and finally I got to eat it. As I excitedly peeled off the wrapping, I could feel how soft the cream was, and it smelled so good.

Cutting the cake with a knife, it was just so soft~ And the surprise was the fruit packed into every layer!! Gold kiwi everywhere.

![Cross-section of the low-sugar fruit cake with layers of gold kiwi](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone/daegu-low-sugar-cake-baby-milestone-24-64ivk-900.webp)

I excitedly started with the cream on the outside and ?????? wow, what is this??? It's so good????? I couldn't help being surprised by how much better it was than I expected. It's not that slippery, odd cream flavor; it's very smooth and moist cream, and the taste is like a less sweet Horang Maru (a walnut cake)? The cream alone gets top marks. So delicious.

Then I took a bite of the cake itself, and wow.????? There's no wheat flour, rice flour or sugar and it can still taste like a cake?? The sponge felt a bit more rustic than regular cake, but not bothersome at all, soft enough, and the flavor itself was in no way lacking. So delicious!!!!!!

While my husband watched the baby, I sat there alone, marveling and eating like crazy... and then my husband dug in afterward and enjoyed it so much. We kept 2 slices for neighbors and friends, and the two of us finished the rest that very day........ Yum⭐

## Why I recommend The Sunsu Bread's low-sugar cake if you're watching blood sugar or dieting

The Sunsu Bread's sugar-free, low-carb cake was a dessert that my pre-diabetic husband and I, a lifelong dieter, could eat together without worry. My husband is slim, but he's pre-diabetic, so I worry even about desserts, yet this time I really could let him eat without a care. I think he relaxed and enjoyed it too.

For me, a lifelong dieter, the sugar-free, low-carb cake is a lovable dessert with a huge advantage. For people who really manage their blood sugar or diet, even eating one dessert is stressful, so a cake that takes that worry away, and tastes so, so good too, is something I recommend everyone try at least once. A truly sincere recommendation⭐
