Fro-yo girl here. I recently visited Harucake, a Korean cake bakery in LA’s Koreatown, and to my surprise, they had a few types of yogurt cake. There were two types of yogurt cake: summer peach (vanilla genoise, homemade peach compote, lemon yogurt cream) and green grape (vanilla genoise, lemon yogurt cream, fresh green grape).
Green grape yogurt cake ($14/slice): The vanilla genoise cake was light, fluffy, and tender. There were three layers of cake and two layers of milk cream. The entire cake is also covered in milk cream. The grapes were sweet and fresh. The lemon yogurt is subtle and actually tastes like yogurt. It was a big slice of cake but because it was light and not too sweet, it was easy to finish. The flavors are subtle and the cake delicate.
Harucake makes the cutest minimalist, low sugar (Asian sweet), organic milk cream cakes. The cake flavors (e.g., chocolate earl grey, strawberry milk cream, mugwort injeolmi) rotate but I believe all the cakes feature genoise (sponge cake) and layers of milk cream.
Is Harucake’s yogurt cake better than Yu Cake’s blueberry yogurt cake? Well, they’re different. Harucake’s cake is softer. Yu Cake gives you more yogurt cream and has more going on. Both are lower in sugar than your typical cake. I’d have a hard time choosing between Harucake and Yu Cake.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
