Sweet cream
What Sets Starbucks Cold Foam Apart From Sweet Cream? We all know that the menu options at Starbucks are seemingly endless, and as a result our order iterations sweet cream get a little ridiculous. But that’s what makes Starbucks Starbucks, right? But as much freedom as we have at Starbucks to follow our hearts and bring to life our ideal cup of joe, the exhaustive customization possibilities at this iconic coffee chain can get a little confusing.
Two popular additions that, for many people, level up their Starbucks order and, for many people, may be confusing menu options: cold foam and sweet cream. What exactly are they, and what’s the difference? Grab your go-to macchiato or nitro cold brew and settle in. We’re here to help un-confuse you. Cold foam is pretty much what it sounds like: a cold, frothy, foamy layer that sits on top of your coffee.
In the customization menu on the Starbucks app or online, cold foam is listed under “Toppings” in its own category, so think of it as a topping to your coffee rather than something that gets mixed into the drink. With several different flavor options available, you can get anything from Chocolate Cream to Salted Caramel to Irish Cream cold foam — and you even have the option to go with “light” or “extra” in volume. Sweet cream, as its name implies, is an inherently sugary, creamy substance that’s added to drinks for some extra flavor and sweetness. Again, it comes in certain Starbucks orders with drinks like the Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew, but you can also add it to your preferred drink — whether it’s hot or cold. Because the ingredients are mixed together rather than frothed, the sweet cream retains a heavier, almost whipped-cream like form and is naturally much sweeter than cold foam.
In the customization menu, you’ll find vanilla sweet cream under the “Milk” option rather than “Toppings. While cold foam can come unsweetened or in various flavors, sweet cream is always sweetened, and always flavored with the classic Starbucks vanilla syrup. To sum up: cold foam is a subtle cold-drink topper that’s lower in fat and sugar and provides a little extra texture and milkiness. Sweet cream is a heavier, creamier, vanilla-flavored option for some extra richness and sweetness that can be added to hot or cold drinks. In true Starbucks form, the choice is yours to make. R: Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton. Cream were a British rock band formed in London in 1966.
The group consisted of bassist Jack Bruce, guitarist Eric Clapton, and drummer Ginger Baker. Bruce was the primary songwriter and vocalist, although Clapton and Baker also sang and contributed songs. In 1993, Cream were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Bluesbreakers had earned him a reputation as the premier blues guitarist in Britain. Each was impressed with the other’s playing abilities, prompting Baker to ask Clapton to join his new, then-unnamed group. Clapton, Baker was so surprised at the suggestion that he almost crashed the car. In contrast, while Bruce was in Bond’s band, he and Baker had been notorious for their quarrelling.
