Flour Fresh Cream Donut
8.4
Korean-style cream donuts served from a bright pink stall inside Rodeo Galleria mall, filled generously with house-made custards and fresh fruit creams. The signature crème brûlée features a torched sugar crust over velvety custard filling, while specialty flavors like black sesame with red bean mochi showcase authentic Asian ingredients.

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Perfect for a casual morning coffee date or post-activity treat, but it's a mall food stall with no seating - plan to take your donuts elsewhere to eat together
Can I get a table without a reservation? No tables - this is a takeout-only stall inside a mall. Grab your donuts and enjoy them at mall seating or take them to go
Is it kid-friendly? Extremely kid-friendly - sweet treats in a safe mall environment. Kids love watching the torching of crème brûlée donuts, but note these sell out fast so arrive early
How long do the donuts stay fresh? Best eaten within 2-3 hours for optimal cream texture. The custard can weep if left too long, so plan to enjoy them soon after purchase
Can I order these for a party or event? Yes - pre-order at least 24 hours ahead for quantities over 6. They can do custom assortments but don't offer delivery; pickup only
Best For
Better for: Korean-style cream donuts with authentic fillings (black sesame, red bean mochi) that you won't find at American chains. The torched crème brûlée is Instagram gold and genuinely delicious, not just pretty. Best for adventurous flavor seekers willing to hunt down mall stalls.
Skip if: You want traditional American cake or glazed donuts, need a sit-down cafe experience, or are looking for late afternoon availability (they sell out). Also skip if you're vegan or prefer less sweet options - these are indulgent cream bombs.
