我把首尔的cafe时光带回家了。。。
去年的首尔～釜山～庆州自由行，虽然行程有点像行军（我穿着球鞋脚都会被磨破，其中一个脚指甲回来后还脱落了！），不过这次终于有机会在首尔的江南区，新沙洞林荫大道附近的一个好小好小的cafe，喝下午茶，la kopi！
我的花盆甜点：Oreo加雪糕，好像变成oreo mcFlowery了啦！
This post is about my last trip to Seoul...the relaxing time we spent at this little cafe, Banana Tree, at Shinsha dong, near Garosu-gil. I was drawn to this cafe simply because of their cute flower pot dessert! We had a great time sipping latte and enjoying the .banana pudding (paap) on a cold wintry afternoon.
I had wanted to recreate this lovely dessert when I got back home, but as usual, I procrastinated. A couple of weeks ago, I was so inspired by The Pioneer Woman's springy flower pot dessert that I wasted no time to get my hands 'dirty' creating my own flower pot dessert. I made a simplified version, that is, I didn't use any pound cake as base. Instead, I lined my flower pots with a paper muffin cup (which happened to fit in nicely into the flower pot) and filled it up with ice cream. I topped the ice cream with crushed oreo cookies and colourful chocolate stones. If you do not own any flower pots, this adorable dessert can be made in small glasses too. These are great after dinner dessert and I am sure they will surprise any guests young or old.

Hi, HHB, is this your 1st time writing in Chinese? This edible "soil" is very special! Are you going to post more about your trip to Seoul?
鲸鱼蓝蓝蓝, 去首尔一定要去一下咖啡馆！至少也要到咖啡馆吃早餐 :)
Jessie, no this is not the first time I wrote in Chinese ;)
Can't write well although I mainly speak Chinese and read Chinese books. Yes, will mention my Korea trip as and when there is any food that I made is related.
HHB, if my seoul trip confirm, hope I am able to squeeze time to go this cafe!
Hi Jess, there are many nice cafes in Seoul, you can hop into anyone which is convenient for you...the only problem is time! There are so much to see, not forgetting the wide array of food to sample.
You can find this in singapore! At a cafe called vanilla cafe. Just order Dirt Cake!
Yes HHB, I missed the korean bbq, the gingsheng chicken, the bibimbap, the street food such as grilled cuttle fish, tteokbokki variations etc, so much, and missed the shopping too hahaha...
Oh my goodness! This is so brilliant. How did you find that korea cafe online? How did you find the Pioneer woman site online. What gives you the inspiration to google for these beautiful things. :)
Doing it in a flower pot is so much nicer but I cannot be buying them just for this dessert, maybe do it on a glass cup or ramekins? But then no feel ... how ah? :)
I also want to say I love the paper house, the other pictures you have taken. So magazine, journal like! So got feel! I love! I also love the metal spoon which shape like spade. You did not go ask them where they buy it ? :)
Yanshuang, thanks for the info! I certainly hope I can find time to visit the vanilla cafe, from its website it looks like a nice little cafe ;)
Jess, hope your trip is confirmed! I missed the food too!
Sherlyn, found it by chance, from a travel site. I don't know how to ask where they got the spoons, could only use international language to communicate, haha! That is not a paper house, it is made of metal, very cute!
A sweet cafe! Thanks for sharing, love to read it.

Hi, thanks for your invitation! However, I am no professional baker and everything is self taught, I am not qualified to sell my bakes. I don't really have the skills and my knowledge in baking is quite limited as there are still so many things that I do not know. I wish you success in your business venture!
