I am a pretty competitive person. So when a friend asked me if I really etched the Mona Lisa that is displayed in my personal Facebook album (below), I felt sad saying, “No, Darling made that one.” So, taking the advice of Barney Stinson of HIMYM, I stopped being sad and became awesome instead! 😀 …

Breaking Bad: Heinsenberg
Breaking Bad was such a fantastically written show. I loved watching Walter White rise and fall throughout the show. So, I just had to pay tribute to Walter White aka Heinsenburg for his villainous intellect. Coffee: Rosso Coffee Roasters – Rwanda (Kivu Kanzu, Bourbon, Washed espresso beans)
Doctor Who: Slitheen
There seems to be a HUGE fanbase for my Doctor Who themed latte art, which makes me feel kind of silly. I only started watching Doctor Who this year and only because I ran out of interesting things to watch. I usually hate time travel themed shows, but I found myself happily obsessing over Doctor …
Batgirl
I am huge Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) fan! I grew up watching the animated Batman series in the 90s and saw a lot of myself in her – a curious, trouble seeking, do-it-yourself kind of girl who sometimes gets into too much trouble. If you ever at the Comic Expo, you might catch me cosplaying this …
What?! This isn’t Starbucks?
It’s not like I don’t ever go to a Starbucks, but I don’t go to Starbucks because I’m expecting good coffee. I go to a Starbucks because it’s convenient and I want something sugary – I don’t expect good coffee at all. In fact, I expect flat espresso and crunchy, tasteless milk foam masked by …
Oppa Pika-Gangnam Style!
Yes … I was still listening to this viral song …
Do not fear … You will be upgraded!
The Cybermen are one of my favorite adversaries in Doctor Who – a race who strives to become perfect, favouring intelligence and the removal of fear. How awesome is that?! Ha, ha! I love their weakness as well – “The Cybermen … they blew up. We blew them up with love.” (Doctor Who, 2011, Episode …
Hello, Sweetie – Flirty Smile
I’m back to Doctor Who themed latte art again! This morning’s food art is River Song. I had a message come through saying that 3D latte art doesn’t mean that the milk is terrible – I’m just doing it wrong and I should be using skim milk because I would get more foam. I already …
Company Logo Art – Javeda
It’s practice time! Latte Art Love just got booked for a trunk show held by local bridal designer, Javeda by Aman Dhalay. I’ll be creating logo art cups of coffee for her guests and this was my very first attempt at the art. For the day of the event, I’ll have to use Fratello Coffee – …
The Art of Great Coffee
The Art of Great Coffee is a balance between a mouth watering cup of richly textured coffee and a jaw dropping show of artistic flare. A cup of breathtaking latte art, however, does NOT mean the cup also contains great coffee. In fact, you can make outstanding art pieces with mediocre milk foam and ‘meh’ tasting …
