The Helsinki Latte is the signature menu, so we ordered one Helsinki Latte and the largest venti size Americano decaf. Since it was evening, we went with decaf beans for both. Even though it was late, I was craving a cold coffee that day. ![Orange pound cake topped with generous orange slices](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-11-122eb-900.webp) And since I was craving something sweet, I also ordered the orange pound cake! It had big, generous orange slices piled on top, and it looked delicious just from that. ## Cookies and gift sets to take home ![Various cookies displayed in the showcase](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-12-1j4iv-900.webp) ![Bakery and dessert display shelf](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-13-1vasr-900.webp) They're famous for cookies too, so there were many varieties, and some were already sold out. We took a few home to go! The handmade cream castella looked so good... honestly I wanted to try every dessert, but I held back since I'm 'on a diet' (in name only) 🐥 ![Packaged cookie gift set product](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-14-savly-900.webp) ![Drip bag sets displayed as gift items](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-15-7qhht-900.webp) ![Display of goods sold at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-16-1g6ji-900.webp) ![Nicely designed gift coffee product](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-17-qpjpz-900.webp) ![Mini Male cups and gift set display](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-18-veb7a-900.webp) ![Beans and coffee-related products displayed in store](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-19-tpi8m-900.webp) ![Gift-worthy café products corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-20-k4eob-900.webp) There are also plenty of great gift items — cookie gift sets, drip bag sets, lattes, cups and more.

The nuttiness of the milk and beans with a subtly sweet finish was so good! Of course the iced Americano's beans were also delicious — good stuff. It felt like a while since I'd had really good coffee. The orange pound cake wasn't just dried orange but had actual juicy orange with such a good fragrance that it was seriously... so, so delicious. The pound cake itself was so moist too ㅠㅠㅠ If you're looking for a Gyodae Station café that's also great at dessert, it's Mini Male!! ![Closing shot of Mini Male Coffee Roaster Gyodae Court Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound/minimale-coffee-roaster-gyodae-orange-pound-24-zw87j-900.webp) Minimal and stylish vibes, plus Gyodae Station's best coffee — Mini Male!
