Question

Answer 2

the price!!!!

Answer 3

A latte (also referred to as a café latte, and sometimes erroneously spelled “latté”) is a type of coffee drink made with hot milk. In Italian, it is simply the word for milk.

Outside Italy, a latte is typically prepared with approximately one third espresso and two-thirds steamed milk, with a layer of foamed milk approximately 5 mm (¼ inch) thick on the top. The drink is similar to a cappuccino; the difference being that a cappuccino has half the amount of milk.

Cappuccino is an Italian coffee-based drink prepared with espresso, hot milk, and milk foam. A cappuccino differs from a caffé latte in that it is prepared with much less steamed or textured milk than the caffé latte with the total of espresso and milk/foam.

Answer 4

Latte is more hot milk added to the coffee with a bit of foam on top, where as cappuccino has less hot milk and lots of foam on top.

Answer 5

well they are the same price (usually) they should both be made with milk (not water).

basicully cappuccino has 1/4 of froth and latte has 1cm of froth and if its not like that its not right.
