latte artist

Coffee surface decorator

A latte artist creates decorative patterns in the foam of espresso drinks, typically by controlled pouring of steamed milk or by etching designs with a tool.

The craft ranges from simple hearts and leaves to elaborate portraits.

The latte artist drew a perfect rosetta in my cappuccino.
