Traditionally, the culinary arts have been described as “Human’s attempt to harmonize, complement, or master nature”. This means that cuisine is a creation from the natural foundation that nature offers to honor the values, souls and aspirations of people.

In the same sense, Cappuccino is known as a typical Italian-style drink because the connotation of how to create a cup of Cappuccino has expressed the Italian philosophy of life and upward aspirations. Starting from the advancement of science and technology and the pursuit of changing the entire life of people with modern facilities, but still expressing the cultural identity of the nation’s origin, affirming the permanence of the national identity and quality.

Initially, Cappuccino was made from Espresso with cream, sprinkled with cinnamon or chocolate on top. Along with the continuous creative process of the art of enjoying coffee, Cappuccino is gradually perfected in terms of preparation with 3 equal parts: Espresso, hot milk and foamed milk. Espresso coffee has a strong, full flavor. Fresh cow’s milk with a minimum of 3.2% protein and 3.5% fat is heated in an Espresso machine to create a mixture of hot milk and foam. The tiny layer of milk foam is created by introducing very small air bubbles into the milk, keeping the coffee and milk below warm and fragrant for longer.

The brewing technology creates a super uplifting cup of coffee, offering the drinker a mind state that surpasses himself and a sense of the ability to sublimate to a new lifestyle.

In this process, people incarnate into creative products to express cultural power and manifest the “ego”.
