There's a financier that keeps popping into my head after just one bite. Big size, great taste, the kind of place I keep coming back to. I visited Ppajak Financier Bar, a spot a lot of people also pick up as a Jeonju thank-you gift set.

Location and basics

Ppajak Financier Bar is a financier specialty shop operating in downtown Jeonju. I'd recommend checking Instagram before visiting for the latest menu and stock.

What's the vibe like inside

It's a financier specialty café showcasing more than 20 gourmet-butter financiers. Besides financiers, they also have quiche — a French home-style pie — gourmet-butter salt bread, and cream lattes.

The quiche has even appeared in pop-ups at Hyundai Department Store and Lotte Department Store. The financier gift package, packed into an Hermès-style bag, is apparently a popular choice for Jeonju café thank-you gifts and job-transfer presents.

The gift-wrapping quality is high enough that whoever receives it would be genuinely happy with the look.

Financier taste review

Each one is big and has real heft. These are financiers with solid ingredients — gourmet butter, top-grade vanilla bean, 100% almond flour, Valrhona chocolate.

Honey rice cake financier (signature)

Crisp outside, with chewy rice cake inside that never hardens. Finished with domestic honey for a sweet yet chewy texture that's distinctive. One bite and you get that crisp-outside, chewy-inside feel all at once — that's the charm.

Salted caramel financier

Finished with handmade caramel sauce and Andes salt. The sweet butterscotch flavor plus the saltiness makes it perfect for anyone who loves the sweet-and-salty combo.

Wine fig cream cheese financier

Topped with figs stewed in wine in-house and cream cheese, then baked. It has an upscale flavor, which is apparently why it often goes out as a gift.
