The writer bought the 34,900 won Premium Assorted Pie as a gift and tried all 4 flavors. The leftover walnut pie was frozen, then thawed at room temperature for about 10 minutes; it stayed mostly crisp and turned denser and fudgier. For a thank-you gift or dessert present, the Hodu Kkakki Brothers assorted pie is well worth recommending. ## Good to know - **Address**: 10 Nambusunhwan-ro 351-gil, Unit 101, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (closest to Exit 4 of Yangjae Station) - **Hours**: Mon–Fri 11:00–21:00 / Sat 11:00–20:00 / Sun 11:00–19:00 - **Break time**: Mon–Fri 14:30–15:30 - **Regular closing day**: None - **Reservations**: Phone reservations available - **Parking**: No free parking - **Shop type**: Takeout only, no eating in - **Premium Assorted Pie**: ₩34,900 (Signature Walnut Pie, Hazelnut Cacao Pie, Original Pecan Pie, Macadamia Cheese Pie) - **Storage**: Regular pies: up to 7 days refrigerated or 30 days frozen; cream pies: within 3 days - **Price reference**: ₩34,900 ≈ $26 (2026-10-19) *as written by the visitor on Jun 25, 2026* I had plans near Yangjae Station this weekend and needed a gift, so I stopped by Hodu Kkakki Brothers (호두까끼형제) for the first time in a while!!

It started in 2017, and to make a dessert that's sweet yet healthy, the pies use no refined sugar and are flavored only with natural honey, oligosaccharide syrup and maple syrup! They also use only organic wheat flour, and the dough combines rice flour and almond flour with natural milk butter, so it's literally a premium walnut pie. ![Pies inside the Hodu Kkakki Brothers Premium Assorted Pie box](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-15-1oky5-900.webp) ![The 4 flavors in the Premium Assorted Pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-16-10jie-900.webp) The pie I bought today is the Premium Assorted Pie (₩34,900), which lets you enjoy 4 flavors at once: Signature Walnut Pie, Hazelnut Cacao Pie, Original Pecan Pie and Macadamia Cheese Pie. - Item: Premium Assorted Pie - Price: ₩34,900 - Contents: Signature Walnut Pie, Hazelnut Cacao Pie, Original Pecan Pie, Macadamia Cheese Pie ![Densely filled Hodu Kkakki Brothers pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-17-vlnv4-800.webp) ![Thick Hodu Kkakki Brothers assorted pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-18-1wfsu-900.webp) They're incredibly thick and packed full, and you get both the crisp texture and the chewy texture at their maximum! Since everything is made with good ingredients, it's a flavor older folks are bound to love, haha ## Walnut pie storage: how long in the fridge or freezer? ![Walnut pie storage instructions](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-19-esi1q-891.webp) Regular pies from Hodu Kkakki Brothers keep within 7 days refrigerated or within 30 days frozen, while cream pies should be eaten as soon as possible, within 3 days. So if you can't finish everything at once, freezing is the way to go, right??? - Regular pies: within 7 days refrigerated / within 30 days frozen - Cream pies: eat within 3 days ### Trying a frozen walnut pie after thawing I actually froze the leftover Hodu Kkakki Brothers walnut pie, then thawed it naturally for about 10 minutes and tried it. ![Walnut pie frozen and naturally thawed](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-20-1u6z2-1200.webp) The crispness didn't die much, and it actually felt chewier with a deeper flavor, so I enjoyed it, haha. If you eat it straight from the freezer you could hurt your teeth, so I recommend thawing it naturally for about 10 minutes! ![Thawed Hodu Kkakki Brothers walnut pie ready to eat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage-21-repy3-783.webp) The assorted pie from Hodu Kkakki Brothers near Yangjae Station is a total must-recommend for thank-you or dessert gifts 👍 ## Where it is - Hodu Kkakki Brothers (호두까끼형제) - 10 Nambusunhwan-ro 351-gil, Unit 101, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 남부순환로351길 10 101호 - 37.4854963, 127.0347577 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%98%B8%EB%91%90%EA%B9%8C%EB%81%BC%ED%98%95%EC%A0%9C/@37.4854963,127.0347577,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@lunchroom-compass/yangjae-walnut-pie-freezer-storage/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
