cappuccino foam
Espresso drink topping
Cappuccino foam is the layer of frothed milk that tops a cappuccino, created by aerating steamed milk until it becomes thick and creamy.
The foam should be dense and velvety rather than bubbly—baristas call this microfoam.
Good cappuccino foam holds its shape and can support latte art: The cappuccino foam was so stiff the chocolate powder sat on top without sinking.
