When it comes to coffee, there’s nothing like a tasty snack to elevate your experience. Today, we’re diving into some classic Korean convenience store snacks that pair beautifully with coffee.
1. Ace Crackers
These lightly salted, buttery crackers are simple yet incredibly satisfying. They’re a perfect match for the iconic Korean mixed coffee, also known as 3-in-1 instant coffee, which combines sugar, creamer, and coffee into one convenient packet.
For a healthier twist, try KimlyParc’s Original Korean Latte. It’s vegan, less sweet than traditional instant coffees, and pairs wonderfully with Ace Crackers. Pro tip: Back in the day, people used to dip these crackers into their coffee for a nostalgic treat that’s still delightful today!
2. Home Run Balls (홈런볼)
Next up, we have Home Run Balls, a beloved Korean snack that’s soft, fluffy, and filled with creamy goodness. While these pastries come in various flavors like custard or pistachio, the classic chocolate flavor remains a fan favorite.
Home Run Balls are a dream with milk, but if you’re a latte lover, they’re even better. For an ultra-convenient option, whip up a latte using KimlyParc’s Craft Instant Espresso. Just mix the powder with milk, and you’ll have a delicious latte ready in under a minute. Perfect for lazy mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up!
3. Couque ďAsse (쿠크다스)
These thin, buttery cookies with a creamy filling are a sweeter option compared to Ace Crackers and Home Run Balls. Their rich flavor profile makes them an ideal match for bold black coffee.
For a relaxing evening treat, pair Couque ďAsse with KimlyParc’s Craft Instant Decaf. The smooth, balanced flavor of the decaf coffee cuts through the sweetness of the cookies, making it a perfect combo for unwinding after a long day.
You can easily find all these snacks at your local Korean grocery store. Stock up on your favorites and enjoy exploring different pairings with coffee. Whether you’re into creamy lattes or bold black brews, there’s a perfect snack-coffee combo waiting for you!
