Trick or Treat? MERINGUE-UCCINO!

One of my most scary experiences in recent times..

 

Whilst visiting friends in UK, I decided to stop and check the coffee scene and see how the English ‘Barista hype’ compares to the Swedish one.

So I went to a really popular café on the main road of a London suburb and ordered a regular Cappuccino.

A few minutes later the waitress arrived with this to which I wondered if it was a mistake or if it was supposed to be like this.

After consulting a few local coffee lovers I figured this was the standard, not a ‘Halloween special’ meant as a practical joke or even to scare you!

If you really love froth you most likely would be a fan but in terms of shape and consistency it would be more correct to call this a Meringue-uccino or something to that effect.

If kids knock on your door tonight asking ‘trick or treat?’ why not treat them to one of these?

Happy Halloween!
