On a weekend afternoon there was no wait, and the takeout order — Signature Blanc at 14,000 won, vanilla caramel mille-feuille at 13,000 won and pistachio madeleine at 4,500 won — made it home without collapsing. With gift sets on the shelf too, Notldun is worth a spot on any Seongsu sugar-fix route. ## Good to know - **Address**: 11 Seoul Forest 2-gil, 1st floor, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (605 m from Ttukseom Station Exit 8) - **Hours**: Mon–Thu 11:00–22:00 / Fri–Sun 11:00–22:30 - **Services**: Takeout, reservations and group visits available - **Seating**: About 6–7 tables in the café - **Parking**: No on-site parking; nearby Ttukseom Yusuji Public Parking Lot (23 Wangsimni-ro 11-gil, Seongdong-gu) - **Signature Blanc**: 14,000 won - **Vanilla caramel mille-feuille**: 13,000 won - **Pistachio madeleine**: 4,500 won - **Price reference**: ₩14,000 ≈ $10.5 · ₩13,000 ≈ $9.6 · ₩4,500 ≈ $3.3 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 14, 2026* I want to introduce Notldun (노틀던), a place I'd highly recommend as a Seongsu café, a Seoul Forest dessert café, and honestly one of the best dessert spots in Seongsu. ![Main image of Notldun, a dessert café near Seongsu and Seoul Forest](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-01-1trj1-1200.webp) ## Where Notldun is, opening hours and parking Notldun is on the 1st floor of 11 Seoul Forest 2-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, 605m from Ttukseom Station Exit 8.

There seemed to be about 6–7 tables inside Notldun. I visited on a weekend afternoon, and since so many customers were there for takeout, I got in with no wait at all. ![Table seating inside Notldun](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-06-11k6p-966.webp) ![Notldun's interior atmosphere on a weekend afternoon](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-07-g8dr6-966.webp) Through the glass you could see the chefs hard at work making the desserts, which honestly makes you trust the place even more ❤️ I was surprised how many staff members there were. ![Dessert prep area seen through the glass](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-08-pdsfk-966.webp) ![Notldun's white-and-wood interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-09-d2ue6-966.webp) The store had a bright white-and-wood interior. ✔️ If you write a review, they apparently give you a Valrhona Guanaja dark chocolate latte, so it's worth doing. The basic insulated packaging already looks lovely, but if it's for a gift, buying a separate box will make it look even more premium. ## Notldun's madeleine and financier selection and gift sets Notldun's madeleines came in lime, pistachio, Earl Grey, vanilla, and raspberry. ![Madeleines on display at Notldun](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-10-7q1lt-966.webp) ![Madeleine flavors including lime and pistachio](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-11-7yycb-966.webp) They also had a financier selection and a Valrhona madeleine selection for sale, both great as gift sets. ![Financier selection gift set](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-12-sg9ew-966.webp) ![Valrhona madeleine selection set packaging](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-13-tfyv5-966.webp) Even though I visited during the day, a lot of the popular items were already sold out. Looks like they keep restocking, though 😊 ![Notldun's dessert showcase during the day](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-14-ndabv-966.webp) ![Cakes remaining in the showcase](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-15-1sfos-966.webp) There were so many gorgeous-looking desserts that I spent a long time trying to decide what to get 🥹 ## The three Notldun desserts I took home and what they cost I got the Signature Blanc (₩14,000), vanilla caramel mille-feuille (₩13,000), and pistachio madeleine (₩4,500) to go 💛 ![Notldun's takeout bag and insulated packaging](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-16-oe7ck-966.webp) ![Boxed Notldun desserts packed for takeout](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-17-2tj2o-966.webp) They packed everything so carefully that nothing was crushed even after I got home from my Seongsu outing. ![Desserts still intact after transport](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-18-f38al-966.webp) From left to right: Signature Blanc ₩14,000, vanilla caramel mille-feuille ₩13,000, pistachio madeleine ₩4,500 ❤️ ![Signature Blanc, mille-feuille, and madeleine together](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-19-12i51-966.webp) ![Notldun's 3 desserts lined up side by side](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-20-3pjq2-966.webp) ### Signature Blanc, 14,000 won The Signature Blanc is white chocolate mousse layered with tart-sweet cassis (blackcurrant), nutty pistachio, and a crisp final layer — so many flavors in one bite! If you love pistachio, this rich, nutty taste is a guaranteed hit ❤️ ![Close-up of the Signature Blanc](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-21-17ovp-966.webp) ![Signature Blanc with white chocolate mousse](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-22-1kesa-966.webp) ### Vanilla caramel mille-feuille, 13,000 won Layers of vanilla cream stacked in the mille-feuille, plus sweet-salty salted caramel, made for a dessert that nails both texture and flavor. You could really feel the layers of pastry, and the chocolate on top tied it all together nicely 🩷 ![Cross-section of the vanilla caramel mille-feuille](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-23-9mqui-966.webp) ![Layered mille-feuille pastry](https://img.superchart.com/images/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts-24-1pjvd-966.webp) ### Pistachio madeleine, 4,500 won With no jam or cream inside, this madeleine let the nutty pistachio flavor shine through cleanly. A generous amount of pistachio made this a real winner 🩷 ## Who is Notldun best for? Notldun, where I got to try premium desserts, is a solid recommendation as a top Seongsu dessert spot and Seongsu café. They also sell very upscale gift sets, great for gifting or for sharing together. Located near Seoul Forest, it's a highly recommended sugar-fix stop for anyone looking for a sweet Seoul Forest / Ttukseom dessert café ✨ ## Where it is - Notldun (노틀던) - 11 Seoul Forest 2-gil, 1st floor, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 성동구 서울숲2길 11 1층 - 37.5473614, 127.0400154 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%85%B8%ED%8B%80%EB%8D%98/@37.5473614,127.0400154,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-evening-tab/nortledun-seongsu-weekend-takeout-desserts/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
