For the most delicious baking, we've packed it with the freshest seasonal flavors.

At the end of Modamsan Mountain in Gimpo, there is a small cake shop and baking class space called 'And Cake'.
In the spring, they serve cakes topped with bright red strawberries, in the summer, scones filled with soft, garden-fresh potatoes, in the fall, pound cakes topped with sweet apples picked from the farm, and in the winter, pies filled with warm, roasted sweet potatoes.


Pastry chef Kim Kyung-hwa, who runs this place, bakes with plenty of seasonal ingredients.
It is about using fruits and vegetables not as side dishes or decorations, but as the main characters, and bringing out the flavors of the season.
When I taste the cakes and cookies here, I think about how potatoes have such a fragrance, how interesting the texture of corn kernels is, how pretty the color of purple sweet potatoes is, and how unexpectedly chewy the texture of burdock is. Everyday ingredients come to me in a new way.
The secret is to bring out the natural flavor of the ingredients without any special techniques.

"Four Seasons Baking" includes the cake shop's existing popular menu items, as well as a variety of menus developed by the author while tending to her garden and tasting seasonal ingredients throughout the four seasons.
We introduce various items such as cakes, castella, financiers, madeleines, mont blanc, cookies, canelés, macarons, dacquoise, and puddings by understanding the taste, aroma, and texture of each seasonal ingredient.
Each recipe is meticulously incorporating the know-how learned in baking classes, ensuring that anyone can make it deliciously without fail.


『Four Seasons Baking』 was created over the course of a year to capture the vividness of the seasons.
The story of baking development along with the seasons is written in essays here and there, so please read them first.
Then, open the page for this season and follow the recipe containing your favorite seasonal ingredients.
An ordinary day, the passing seasons, may come to you a little more special.
