miss b loves......... cappuccino art



I have an addiction to cappuccino and I'm always impressed with the patterns on the milk froth especially in one of my favourite local cafés - Java  in  Lytham St Annes

Java cappuccino- no stencil used!

It's good to see cafés making an effort, even if they do use a stencil...........


Costa coffee beans and M&S Fairtrade

I thought I might have a go at home and came across a couple of videos....How to 'draw' a leaf and a bear...........




and finally a face!! - perhaps just a little ambitious for me!!..............


so I'll just keep practising with my new coffee stencils  .................


....but you may have to wait a while to see a work of art.....

    Well, what can I say? You and I have a lot in commun, Miss b. My favorite drink of choice is the cappuccino too. Now, I have to look into this further, but I am pretty sure Seattle baristas (who, they claim, are among the best in the world, of course,) do not use stencils. Will report back shortly.

    I'm sad that I dont like coffee, but I am always impressed by the art that is on the top. I once saw Leonardo Devinci's face, no kidding.
