Follow Fridays: The Beehive
We really … really are Coffee Geeks. Elle recalibrated and deep cleaned the espresso machine last night and went to bed without having a coffee – well, because she was going to bed! Ironically, she couldn’t sleep a wink because she really, really want to have the very first last latte after the cleaning – …
Mighty Monday: Storm of X-Men
Almond milk is usually a difficult medium to work with. It usually does not foam well and when it does foam, giant bubbles cover the surface! A barista cannot draw latte art if the surface is marred with big bubbles! Thanks to Allison, co-owner of Latte Art Love, we found an almond milk brand that …
Throwback Thursday with Snow White
Today is Throwback Thursday and Elle remade a Snow White coffee art that was first sketched in April 2014. In April, Snow White was drawn into the latte with espresso crema straight from the cup. The art was distinguishable, but the lines were thick and blurry. Today, we do our coffee art with Ghirardelli Chocolate …
Mighty Monday: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I, however, have some leftover confidence from yesterday’s fantastic public cafe event that I decided to give it a try with today’s Mighty Monday! Here’s Buffy the …
Art Fun: Stormtrooper Rocking it out
Our wedding couple sent us a few examples of what they would like on the lattes during their wedding coffee time that we are catering. I combine the examples into one super cool latte art – Rocking out Stormtrooper of Star Wars! Coffee: Fratello Coffee – Godfather
Request: My Little Pony
A request was sent in yesterday from a friend’s stepdaughter and I just loved the idea! I grew up with My Little Ponies, but I haven’t seen any of the new ones. I hope the new generation is enjoying the new reboot as much as I enjoyed the originals 😀 Coffee: Fratello Coffee – Godfather
Mighty Monday: Chun-Li
What’s the secret to our fantastically drawn coffee sketches? It’s all about preparation and freshness. Lattes only have a few minutes of picturesque awesomeness before the foam on top deteriorates too much to hold clear artwork, so Elle has to prep up all the supplies beforehand to make sure she can start artwork right after …

C is for … Coffee! It says so right there, so it must be true 😀 Coffee: Fratello Coffee – Godfather
