Notldun's exterior: a red brick building with a full glass front

Walking through the Seoul Forest alleys, you'll notice an eye-catching red brick building — Notldun is on the first floor!!

Notldun has a full glass front so you can see right inside, which also makes it great for people-watching!! (tmi) Somi loves people-watching at cafés the most haha

It looks clean even from outside, so it seems like a nice spot for a Seongsu date too!

What is the atmosphere like inside Notldun?

Notldun's interior is a cozy minimal space decorated in white and wood tones!! There are comfortable tables, and on one side you can see an open pastry kitchen behind clear glass.

You can peek a bit at the making process, which makes it fun to watch. The space isn't huge, but it wasn't bad for sitting quietly for a while. If you look at the tables, everyone buys at least one cake each, and there was also a lot of dessert gift-wrapping going on!!

What's on the menu at Notldun?

Notldun is a pastry boutique centered on mousse cakes, tarts, madeleines and financiers.

Every single dessert type is so delicate and pretty...

Signature items like the madeleine selection (5 pieces) and petit gâteaux sell well, and the baked goods box packaging is so neat that a lot of people were clearly buying them as gifts.

🤍🖤 Valrhona items sell out early, so an early visit is recommended!!!🤍🖤

Which flavors come in Notldun's madeleine selection?

Today's pick is Notldun's madeleine selection. Five madeleines in vanilla, pistachio, lime, Earl Grey and raspberry come in one box.

It's a vanilla, pistachio, lime, Earl Grey and raspberry lineup, and when I opened the box, the little plump bellies on each madeleine looked so tempting.

Notldun's madeleine selection comes in such upscale packaging that it's such a pretty dessert gift!!!
