Seongsu donut café with corn streusel and yuzu donuts: Overdose

I visited Overdose Donut & Coffee (오버도즈도넛앤커피) in Seongsu, a bakery with colorful, stylish donuts~ Made the same day and discarded the same day! They say the donuts are handmade fresh every dawn 🍩

What's the atmosphere like at Overdose Donut & Coffee?

The shop is one flight of stairs up from the first floor. The space is as stylish as the building~

Such a stylish space~

Personally, I really liked this corner,

You can take mirror selfies, and shoot photos with the alley as a backdrop, like a picture frame. 🙌

How do you reserve donuts at Overdose Donut & Coffee?

You can reserve donuts on Naver in boxes of 4, 6 or 9, and there's a discount too. Note that you can't change the donut selection when you reserve.

Today I was short on time and planned to take donuts to go, but what if they sold out? So I made a reservation before visiting!

Donut flavors at Overdose Donut & Coffee

Overdose had yuzu cream, matcha salted caramel, crème brûlée, corn streusel, chocolate, milk cream, Earl Grey, coconut blueberry, sweet potato and injeolmi (rice cake) walnut donuts. First, the visuals! Check out the donut lineup~ They all look delicious and full of personality, right?

These aren't the kinds you see everywhere. I loved that there were so many unique donuts I'd never seen before.

There was also a really wide choice of coffee and tea. I grabbed my pre-ordered 4-donut box, went home and ate them there. Yum yum!

The 4-donut takeout box from Overdose Donut & Coffee

Here's the 4-donut box I brought home. The packaging is pretty, and I liked that they carefully included disposable items too~

The moment I opened the box, wow~ a look no bread lover could resist!!

Looks perfect as a gift, right? But today they're going into my own belly~~

How do the four Overdose donuts taste?

Corn streusel donut

The one I was most curious about: corn streusel! A roasted corn sits right in the center with corn cream inside. The cream itself isn't very sweet and the glaze adds the sweetness, so it goes well with the cream without being heavy. A not-too-strong consommé-ish note? The corn on top was soft too, so the texture never bothered me.

Milk cream donut

The second one, the milk cream donut, looked relatively simple, but

the milk cream had a slight powdered-milk taste, which was oddly welcome. 🤣🤣 A flavor that brings back memories!

Coconut blueberry donut

Third, coconut blueberry! I'd never had a dessert with this pairing so it felt fresh, and it went toooo well together! I thought the blueberry would be too strong, but the coconut held its own, haha. The balance between the two was the best.

Yuzu cream donut

Last, the yuzu cream! It's flavored with Goheung yuzu (Korean citrus), they say~

The yuzu freshness isn't overpowering like lemon, and the added sweetness makes it even more charming~!

I ate it the next day and it was still delicious~

Final verdict on Overdose Donut & Coffee Seongsu

Overall, the cream in Overdose's donuts isn't sweet, and the glaze on the bread adds the sweetness, so nothing was over the top! Also, since donuts are deep-fried, the bread itself often has an oily smell or dryness, but I didn't feel any of that with this Seongsu bakery's donuts, which I really liked. They were soft like ordinary bread.

This time I took the donuts to go because of time, but when I want a break from Seongsu's crowds, I'm planning to visit and have coffee and donuts in the shop!
