The tradition of decorating coffee with beautiful drawings came from ancient times to us from the Capuchin monks. Today baristas - masters of drawing on coffee every year come to the competition. There are only three basic shapes that form the basis of all drawings. Having learned how to create them, you can delight yourself and your loved ones with a cup of not only delicious, but beautifully decorated cappuccino.
It is necessary
- - a cup of cappuccino;
- - a toothpick;
- - milk;
- - syrup;
- - melted chocolate.
Instructions
Step 1
To learn how to draw on a cappuccino, you first need patience. Exercise helps you hone your movement precision. Even a non-professional can try their hand at latte art by making a small stencil of a pattern. There are slots on the stencil lid that covers the coffee cup. Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the surface of the lid. Its particles spill onto the white lush surface of a thick milk foam in the form of a pattern. You can buy such a stencil in a store or make it yourself. Cinnamon enriches the flavor of the cappuccino, but if you don't like it, you can use tinted powdered sugar.
Step 2
On cappuccino, you can create a variety of patterns using heavy cream, which is poured into the coffee in a thin stream along certain lines.
Step 3
For drawing, use a thick syrup of various fruits and berries or melted chocolate. For example, you can draw a "flower". Starting in the middle of the foam, draw several petal circles in a spiral shape. After that, take a toothpick and draw a cross on the spiral, starting from the middle to the edge. After each movement with a toothpick, it should be wiped with a clean cloth. Divide each quarter of the drawing in half in the same way. As a result, you will get a beautiful and very delicate snowflake flower.
Divide the froth into quarters with the syrup. Use a toothpick to draw a snake-like line from one side of the cup to the other. Then, draw a sharp line across the drawing diagonally.
Another example of how to create a beautiful pattern on a cappuccino: use syrup or melted chocolate to “divide” the foam into eight parts - sectors. Then draw a spiral with a toothpick. Move the trickle from the edge of the cup to the center. You should have a small swirl of dark and milky streaks of foam.
