I was recently introduced to Earthling Gluten Free Foods for their Almond Meringue Dacquois. They have put their own twist to this treat with Korean flavour influences and tea flavours too.
They starting making dacquoise during the pandemic as they really missed having them back in Korea. After many trial and error making their ideal Dacquoise, Earthling Gluten Free Foods was born. Their secret is rice flour, which gives it a crispier and chewier texture.
They produce all these Dacquois in a 100% gluten-free commissary kitchen in Vancouver.

Injeolmi
This Dacquoise has soybean powder (Kong Garu) dusted shell and kong-garu (injeolmi) buttercream center. This was our favourite flavour of the flavours we tried. Highly highly recommended.
Mugwort
This is a very unique flavour using Korean mugwort herb (Ssuk) infused shell and mugwort buttercream center. It’s very interesting and definitely has an earthly flavour. I was very indifferent about the flavour but my sister was really really into it.
Hojicha Matcha
I love the colours of the Hojicha infused buttercream and matcha infused buttercream. They use the Paragon Tea Room Hojicha and Matcha tea powder in the buttercream. I would have preferred the flavours seperately to be able to taste the tea better.
Vanilla Bean
If you’re not into tea of Korean flavours, they have it with fresh vanilla bean, thus creating a classic french buttercream. Back to the basics is always good.
Lemon Creme
Hiding in the centre is their fresh lemon zested curd center and cream cheese buttercream. Love the vibrant lemon flavour.
Final Thoughts
I was pleasantly surprised by their Almond Meringue Dacquoise. It was my first time trying and it’s a nice snack that pairs well with tea or coffee. If you’re looking for something different to give a friend or family member, this might be it.

I’m thinking about going to pick some up for the fam at Paragon Tea this weekend at their Pop Up!! Was debating as I have plans made that day.. But after reading your review, I will try to squeeze it in!!
Thank you Diana for this post 🙂
We are glad you thought the cookies were delicious!
We agree with making the hojicha and matcha separate so that the tea flavours can be tasted better – it’s a great idea! it will be available next week at Paragon!
