Starbucks Korea has launched a limited lineup of nostalgic baked goods under the banner “Retro Bites,” available exclusively at select locations including Byeoldabang, Cheongdam STAR, Hannam-dong R, and Gwangjang Market.
The offerings include three items based on traditional Korean street snacks:
Sticky Rice Doughnut: Filled with sweet red bean paste and walnuts, priced at 3,300 won.
Sticky Rice Twisted Bread: A chewy twisted doughnut made with Korean sticky rice, also priced at 3,300 won.
Glazed Doughnut: A classic ring doughnut with a soft texture and sweet glaze, offered at 2,300 won.
The retro-themed release aims to reinterpret familiar snacks in a modern coffeehouse setting, drawing on ingredients such as Korean-grown sweet rice and red beans.
Starbucks notes that the items are adapted to its own recipes and may differ slightly from traditional versions.
The products are available for a limited time and only at the four designated stores.
