What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bricksand Myeongdong is celebrated for its visually appealing, brick-shaped financiers with a wide variety of flavors and attractive gift packaging. While many enjoy the taste and find them perfect for souvenirs, some reviews mention disappointment with the texture, finding the exterior too hard and the interior dry.
"Tried this financiers sometime back and loved the taste. The financiers have many flavours and the store presentation is very colourful. Tried the corn, injeolmi and salt milk bricksand and they tasted delicious. Rainy day so dine in with hot coffee."
Ken Tan
"TLDR: Won't buy for the financiers but more for the packaging.
Tried the financiers on 23rd Oct evening. It was really disappointing as the online reviews were extremely positive. The exterior was too hard (not crispy) and the interior dry and spongey rather than moist and fluffy.
Even though it was relatively cheap at 2500 won per financier with individual packaging and the boxes and paper bags looks trendy, I wouldn't recommend buying at all.
Surprisingly the signature brickshake was quite good though."
Jason Su
"I was looking for souvenirs when I came across this shop.
The block-shaped financiers looked cute and seemed perfect as souvenirs.
You write down the quantity you want on the order sheet provided and bring it to the cashier.
The shelf life is seven days from the production date, or 14 days if kept frozen.
Since the chocolate can melt a little when the temperature is high, you need to be careful on hot days."
