Coffee is part of today’s culture, whether it’s in the form of a morning ritual, a meeting between two strangers who become friends, or an attempt to increase late-night productivity. However, it is now much more than a caffeinated drink.
Of course, we have a wide variety of types of coffee, with beans from different parts of the world, and so many ways to prepare it. Some say that you can even judge a person by the way they drink their coffee: some drink it straight, some with ice, some with a lot of sugar, and some with condensed milk.
Instead, coffee is not only a delight for the sense of smell and taste, but has entered the realm of visual art.
For example, 3D coffee art uses milk foam to sculpt little creatures. Different designs can be carved using espresso or chocolate as ink, and sometimes the color palette is made more varied by food coloring.
Customers can also order specific designs at these curious cafes and are willing to pay extra money to get the perfect photo.
London’s Tea Terrace even offers the ability to put your own photo on the customer’s drink. For regarding £5.75, you can take a selfieccino and drink your own face while giving envy to your Instagram followers.
