Our Visit
Today I visited the world's first Swarovski Café located in Dosan Park, Apgujeong. I was excited to see what it would be like as a café, as I was familiar with the brand mainly through accessories and jewelry.
The first and second floors of the building display Swarovski jewelry and accessories, and if you go up the stairs to the third floor, there is a pink café area.
As soon as you enter, the extravagant pink color and the pretty tables and chairs catch your eye. I felt like I was at a fancy party space.
The counter space is also engraved with a large Swarovski logo, and it has a unique and pretty design.
The tea cups and plates were so pretty that I wanted to take them home. These tea cups were being sold on the 1st and 2nd floors.
K Desserts Tea Set
The menu I ordered today is the K Desserts Tea Set. If you present your Creatrip coupon, you can enjoy the set at a 10% discounted price! This set includes fragrant seasonal tea and Korean-style fusion gourmet dessert. They say that if you change the tea to coffee, the tea set will turn green. The composition is so beautiful, like a princess's tea time, so many women will likely love it.
You can also watch while they make the Mont Blanc cake included in the tea set. They make the cake with a machine and it looks like noodle strands with fresh cream.
They also add gold decoration.
The tables here are each very pretty and unique. It feels like you're looking at a large table made of Swarovski jewels. It felt nice to be served desserts one by one on pretty trays and plates.
The main themes and ingredients of desserts change according to the season! This fall, desserts are made with omija and figs. The current winter season theme is tangerines and chestnuts. So we have desserts and drinks made with tangerines and chestnuts prepared. Isn't it really fun?
First, we'll start by having two glasses of the welcome drink, milk tea. The milk tea with a swan logo is Jeju tangerine milk tea. This is the first time I've tried this flavor of milk tea; it has a citrus taste that is fragrant and sweet.
Now slowly try the side desserts. I'll try Kaesong-style yakgwa topped with traditional Korean dessert kumquat jeonggwa and sweet chestnut preserved in syrup bonibam.
Kumquat jeonggwa has a strong citrus flavor and is chewy. Gaeseong jooak has a crispy exterior and a moist interior with a hint of citrus flavor. The Bonibam was really sweet and delicious.
This is a tangerine jelly made with glutinous rice and tangerines. They make each dessert by hand here. One was green tea flavor, one was pumpkin flavor, and the crispy texture was delicious.
The tangerine jelly looked just like a jewel, and it had a tangerine flavor with a refreshing taste.
The types of tea vary by season, and for this winter season, Gujeolcho tea is ready. Pouring tea into a pretty teacup made me feel like a princess.
Next, I will try the main dessert Montblanc chestnut tiramisu. The thread-like surface looks appetizing.
There is also a piece of white chocolate with a swan logo embedded on the cake. A honey cake with a Swan logo on the side also came out.
The Mont Blanc cake has a base made of rice cake instead of bread. They say that the tiramisu was made with strawberry bean paste cream on the outside and Bonibam on the inside. The combination of soft strawberry cream flavor on the outside, sweet Boni Bon inside, and chewy Baekseolgi is really great.
The sweet rice cake next to it was so cute that I could enjoy it with both taste and sight.
Swan Latte + Rose Mousse Jewels
I also tried the Swan Latte & Rose Mousse Jewels set. As expected, the teacup and tray are so pretty.
There is a swan latte art pattern on the latte. The teacup is also very luxurious.
On top of the mousse cake, there are white crystal-like granules and a large logo chocolate embedded on it. This cake looks like a real gem.
I split it open and tasted it, feeling hints of grapefruit and raspberry, and it was sweet and smooth. It seems to go really well with coffee.
This place is not only filled with desserts and food but also abundant with photo spots everywhere. You can take a selfie in the mirror with the pretty decorations in the display.
The photos come out well. It's also great to watch outside with the full-length windows.
I recommend Swarovski, a stunning and luxurious café that feels like a birthday party with friends. Enjoy delicious desserts, plenty of photo spots, and Swarovski’s unique vibe. Don’t forget to grab a coupon from Creatrip before you visit!
