The sponge cake wasnβt light or fluffy, the cream was far too sweet and rich, and everything tasted like it had been sitting overnight. The coffee was also very average. Unfortunately, I donβt think Iβll be coming back.

The cafe next door is our go to matcha spot, and today we decided to stop by this cute little bakery as well. Everything looked amazing, and I especially love Korean pastries due to their unique flavors and light sweetness. The prices are reasonable, staff were very kind and polite, the place itself was clean, and the little notes for each pastry definitely helped. The rice cake was so so good, so was the matcha cookie. I canβt wait to go back!

The store is bright and clean with limited tables. The madeleines are about $5 each piece on average. The slice cakes are from about $8 to $13 each piece, not cheap. We got the Earl Grey, Lemon & Lime, and Churro madeleines. The Earl Grey one has some earl grey filling inside and it's very good. You can definitely taste the earl grey flavor. The Lemon and Lime madeleine is excellent. It is very fragrant and you can tell they use fresh lemon and lime to make it. There's also some lime zest on top. The Churro one is the most dense and heaviest in terms of texture. Despite it's with cinnamon and sugar coating, it's not that sweet. It seems a bit dried though. Will return to try other items.

I visited Gu eum Cake and Bakery on a Monday around 3:40 PM. It wasn't busy and the bakery case had a lot of options available. We tried the salted chocolate financier, hojicha black sesame brittle cake, and Korean latte. The financier and cake were both good, but I felt like the latte just tasted like a sweetened latte. I'm not sure what flavor they were going for. However, the bakery is not dog friendly (clearly posted on their doors). We had our dog with us so we did not bring him inside. I asked the employee if we could use two stools they had in the bakery that were stacked in a corner so we could sit and eat our purchase outside. She told us no. Honestly I was a bit surprised by that. I wanted to respect the rules of the establishment, but I thought as paying customers, they would try to accommodate our request. They did not have any other customers at the time so no one was using the stools. I know they don't have to accommodate my request, but I was a bit disappointed that they wouldn't let us use two stools to eat our purchase outside. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat at Gu-eum again. I thought the food was good, but not extraordinarily special.
