Latte art is captivating coffee lovers across Asia. Building on Korean artist Kangbin Lee's stunning recreations—like Van Gogh's Starry Night—on coffee foam and Hong Kong's Leo’s Espresso with its intricate 3D animal designs, Singapore's Carol Mel Café excels in Sakura latte art. Inspired by Japanese cherry blossoms, each cup showcases delicate white and red florals against vibrant green, pink, or orange backgrounds. These fresh, spring-like creations are handcrafted by skilled waiter Damien Soh, though availability is strictly limited.
Carol Mel Café owner Caroline Liew shared with Asia One that just 25 "Sakura coffees" are available daily. To secure one, follow the café and Damien Soh on Instagram, then place your order via direct message at least one day in advance, specifying your preferred floral design. This process ensures customers aren't disappointed due to limited matcha powder supplies and the time-intensive preparation. Priced at €5, it's a worthwhile treat for those stunning social media shares.
