The Perfect Union of Coffee and Milk Foam

Coffee and milk foam can be called a match made in heaven. Coffee with crema paired with dense milk foam creates the appearance, texture, and atmosphere that everyone loves. Coffee latte art is a visual and sensory delight, while the aroma emitted by the coffee itself makes people feel calm and peaceful. Therefore, the existence of coffee latte art is indispensable.

Latte art can create unexpected patterns. Today's baristas can also create patterns that customers love according to their preferences. On one hand, this satisfies consumers' desires; on the other hand, it also helps baristas deepen their understanding of latte art.

Fresh latte art coffee beans have richer crema, which when paired with dense milk foam can create a beautiful latte art. Conversely, stale coffee beans contain less crema, and when paired with rough milk foam, the resulting coffee is less aesthetically pleasing. The taste and special aroma of these three coffee beans we've studied can give the entire cup of coffee a different feeling. Coffee latte art can be presented in many different ways, making people feel that latte art is a very special and attractive beverage.

Stencil Pattern Technique

The stencil pattern technique is the simplest method among coffee latte art skills. Simply sift decorative powder through a specially patterned stencil onto the milk foam to complete the design. You can also create your own stencil pattern templates and combine them with simple hand-drawing techniques to create unique and distinctive patterns.
