If you're looking for a Gwangjang Market bakery with something other than the usual snacks, this could be a good choice! ## What comes in the 6-piece mugwort choco pie set ![Box of the Ssuk's Choco Pie 6-piece set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-16-45e3g-900.webp) What I ordered was the Ssuk's Choco Pie 6-piece set! One box contains six different individual pieces, so you can enjoy a different flavor each time. ![Opened box showing 6 individually wrapped choco pies](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-17-1yld5-900.webp) ![Individually wrapped choco pies in different colored packaging](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-18-fwpwe-900.webp) ![Set of 6 mugwort choco pie flavors](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-19-b9ovt-900.webp) Opening the box, each one had different colored packaging, which made it fun to unwrap them one by one and guess the flavor. What I liked most was that each piece is individually wrapped, so you don't have to eat them all at once. Great for sharing with a group, or for a quick gift pick-up at Gwangjang Market. Taking the choco pies out one by one, they look pretty small on the outside but were surprisingly filled inside. Each type has different fillings, so the cross-section and texture varied a bit between them. ![Unwrapped single mugwort choco pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-20-kf9vr-900.webp) ## How did the mugwort choco pies taste with coffee? On top of the fragrant mugwort base, each type added its own nutty or sweet character, so it was fun comparing all six. ![Mugwort choco pie topped with toppings](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-21-ygt4m-900.webp) Cutting one in half, the inside was green all the way through, and the mugwort flavor and aroma came through even more clearly. ![Cross-section of a mugwort choco pie cut in half, green inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set/gwangjang-market-mugwort-choco-pie-set-22-14tqx-900.webp) Mugwort can be a love-it-or-hate-it flavor because of its distinctive aroma, but made into a dessert it wasn't as strong as I expected. Some types had a rich, sweet chocolate flavor, while others had toppings on top that added a nutty texture, so each one had a clearly different feel. Ordering a set with a variety of flavors like this was way more fun than sticking to just one. It's also a dessert that pairs well with coffee, so it was nice bringing them home and having one at a time. When you think of a Gwangjang Market bakery, traditional snacks usually come to mind, so a mugwort choco pie felt like a nice change of pace. The packaging is clean too, so I'd recommend it as a snack to bring home to family or friends after exploring Gwangjang Market. ## Is Ssuk's Choco Pie Seoul worth a stop?
