Latte Art

My friend and I attended a "Latte Art" day at YSP. It was a great day out for a coffee lover. We had a talk and demonstrations by a very nice barrista trainer from Coopers Coffee. After a great lunch, we were taught how to make "art" in our latte's.



My friends attempt was very good.


Mine, slightly less impressive!!!

It tasted good though. xxx

Ooh, very arty. I'll have to get the coffee maestro here on a course. Or maybe you could post a tutorial?

I'm a coffee addict and since I missed this 'Latte Day' at the Sculpture Park perhaps you could just share with your lovely blog readers how-to create just one of the designs maybe. Something we could show off to our friends when they pop round for a Cappuccino ;0)

It has to be said that there is something VERY appealing about the thought of learning how to decorate your lattes.......... I would have loved to have done that! :O)

I've always wondered what "latte" was..as it simply means "milk" in Italian..now I know that it means "caffè macchiato" (=spotted coffee)

I've always wondered how they make those patterns that make a delicious coffee even better. An interesting thing to learn and I hope you got to drink all your samples.

Louise said...

They've been struggling with the coffee art in my local Costa, on their flat whites! They could do with a course like this, infact they could well do with employing you, and your friend! x

No you are right don't put your spuds in till all the frost has gone, I just need to prepare the bed and get some weeding done and goodness back in ready for them!
