The Bricksand Signature Dessert


Bricksand has made Dojeon's café of the month this of November for a couple of simple reasons! The absolute centerpiece of the Bricksand experience is its famous, freshly made dessert, named "Bricksand". True to its name, this treat is uniquely shaped like a small brick, making it instantly recognizable and highly photogenic, which is why it is trending on social media right now! Having seen this place keep showing up, Lewis Hooper said he had to try these small desserts for himself, so that's what he did!

A Magical Blend of Textures


As you can see from the photo, the experience here hits you as soon as you walk into the store! Not only are you able to see right into the kitchen and watch the bakers at work, but you are also able to see the colorful selection of these treats, which really help elevate the dessert!

The exterior boasts a delightful golden crispiness, providing a satisfying initial crunch with every bite, which surely comes through when you eat a full one, thanks to the melt-in-your-mouth sensation. It's the perfect balance that keeps you reaching for another and another.


These attractive and delicious brick-shaped treats make for a perfect, memorable gift or souvenir to bring back from your trip to Korea, or for a loved one, and this is why Lewis Hooper bought two boxes before he left the store!
