Latte Art - My Barista Training

Last week all of a sudden I decided to learn coffee making . I booked a class called Barista training and Latte Art. Excited and all set to learn to make coffees I reached the class. We were about 14 people in there . It was fun and we made as many coffees as we could and also learned coffee art ( Latte Art). I tried but did not come up with any best results.Well a lot more practice might help but anyways here are few of them which look tolerable .







This was supposed to be a heart but turned out to be something else. LOL

i like the flower designs and the rest. it's so amazing!

with the last photo, that's the cutest. it looks like a heart though if the one who will see will consider it as a heart.

but if the one who will see it is a green minded, i guess it will be considered as green thing. heheheh ya know!

thanks for sharing ur photos.

u make my day!

That is super cool. My Aunt did classes for cakes but I never heard of latte art classes. They're very pretty; if these are your first tries I'm excited to see what you can make at the end of your class.

They're beautiful! Almost too beautiful to drink. The last picture reminded me of a garlic at first, and then it started to look like... something else. XD

Pinaybackpacker said...

Wooot! Woot! Your coffee looks so HOT! And I don't mean literally. :D

The 6th picture looks like it has floating marshmallows in it. ;)

I have a request though. Can you make a video demonstarting how to do those latte art? I'd love to make one at home, too. I used to manage a coffee shop and I wish i knew how to do it then. :D

Jackie said...

I've been meaning to pop in since these went up and tell you how wonderful they are.

But, we have had a very stressful couple of weeks in our family.

Finally also Google let me follow you.

I love these pictures. I am so glad you took the class.

I love coffee but I like your photos of the coffee much more!!

They are simply wonderful!
