[Samlip] Mini Yakgwa Cookies


Yakgwa are traditional Korean Honey Cookies. They were a royal dessert reserved for the King and his Royal Court during the Joseon Dynasty. Honey, during those times, was used as a medicinal ingredient. And these honey-soaked cookies were regarded as 'medicinal dessert'.

Nowadays, it's served as a light snack, alongside a cup of hot tea or coffee. Yakgwa is made by frying dough and soaking it ginger-infused honey for 6-8 hours. It has a slightly crunchy exterior with a soft-and-chewy inside. Many people say the taste reminds them of a donut or soft-dough cookie.

We chose Samlip's brand because the cookies are mini-sized. (We find that the regular-sized Yakgwa are often too big to finish.) These mini-yakgwa are also individually wrapped and easy to eat.

If you're looking for a simple snack to serve guests, try traditional Korean Yakgwa!

Delicious!

These come in a bag with a lot a yakgwa individually wrapped. They are not oily and small about the size of a quarter coin -perfect for when you are having a slight craving but not wanting to overindulge.

perfect snack size

I know the regular Yakgwa and they were always too sweet and too big for my taste. These small ones are ideal for my coffee or tea break, but I have to admit that I don't just eat one. They're so delicious that I usually grab two or three...
They have a denser texture, subtle sweetness, are not greasy at all and just look cute

Brilliant experience

These yakgwa cookies tasted better than Hyosung brand ones which I have tried before. Less grease, subtle sweetness, perfect with coffee or tea. Delivery was super fast, within a week of placement of the order. Lovely note included which was really sweet. 감사합니다 :)

Had to try these after watching Alchemy of Souls! Yummy!

These came in a pack of 62 yakgwas in a bag. They are snack sized and have a dense chewy texture with a hint of honey. They taste like an american donut basically. Very delicious!! I would buy again!
