Cone Life! - Gelato & Ice cream - Sangsu, Seoul, South Korea

Gelati Gelati - Sangsu-dong

Tiramisu and salted caramel chocolate (double scoop) - 4,000 won

There is no better way to end my trip to Seoul than with cones of sweet sweet goodness. Gelati Gelati is your typical italian gelateria, with the simplest flavours on offer hidden under silver lids (which I do not like! I eat with my eyes first) the gelato here definitely satisfied my tastebuds on this hot summers day. 

My tiramisu was on point here, probably the best tiramisu gelato I have had and it went so well with the salted caramel chocolate. A match made in heaven.

Fell + Cole - Sangsu-dong

Super cute blue box tucked away in the streets of Sangsu-dong. This ice creamery reminded me of an ice box, maybe that was the look they were going for. Gastronomic ice cream made with all natural ingredients in small batches, they also have vegan options too.

With flavours like pineapple cayenne and perilla leaves my mind didn't know what to choose, what ended up on my cone was carrot cake. A flavour I have yet to try in ice cream form but a flavour that is always warming to my tummy.

Boy was I glad I chose this flavour! It actually tasted like I was eating carrot cake, tiny gratings of carrot and pecans. I couldn't get enough, I tried to savour the moment for once and make my ice cream last as long as possible. This is the ultimate ice cream spot for me, I haven't had a flavour this good since.. I really can't remember. Cudos to Fell + Cole!

Monster Cupcakes - Itaewon, Seoul, South Korea

I'm not one to rave about cupcakes, well I have never had a cupcake that has ticked all the boxes, always too sweet or too dry. That was until I found Monster Cupcakes in Itaewon, this place was the bomb!!

I came here mainly for the theme, my love for monsters, getting to eat them was a bonus. The shop is quite small and only has seating for about six people, and they only offer drip coffee so don't go expecting a cafe style shop.

So many choices, what to choose?..

Vanilla Jack Skellington cupcakes & chocolate mint monsters - 

All cupcakes are 5,000 won.

I ended up going with the R.I.P tiramisu & the lemon eyeball, the owner reccommended these as they are some of the best sellers. 

The cake was moist and fluffy, the cream was sooo good minus a tonne of sugar and the flavours tasted as described. The perfect cupcakes, now I wish I had bought a box to take home. 

Cute collectables on display, isn't this the most perfect E.T figurine you have ever seen?

Some more monsters and err Pooh bear?..

Make sure you go to the sweet little shop.
