Items needed to answer the question, How do I design a 3D heart on my cappuccino. Items include:

Take note
Be careful when handling hot beverages. Use caution to avoid burning yourself.

1

Prepare your cappuccino canvas

Brew a fresh cup of cappuccino and make sure you have a good layer of frothy milk on top. The creamy canvas is essential for creating your masterpiece.

2

Draw the outline of your heart

Using a toothpick or a thin coffee stirrer, gently draw a heart shape on the milk foam. Start with a V shape at the top and connect the two sides with a rounded bottom. This will serve as your guideline for the next steps.

3

Add the first layer of milk

Now it's time to add the first layer of milk to your cappuccino canvas. Hold a milk pitcher with a narrow spout close to the surface of the foam and pour a steady stream of milk along the outline of the heart. The key here is to pour slowly and steadily, allowing the milk to sink into the foam.

4

Create depth with a second layer

To give your heart a 3D effect, pour a second layer of milk inside the outline, but slightly off-center. This will create a darker shade and make the heart appear more three-dimensional. Keep pouring with a steady hand, and watch the magic happen!

5

Finishing touches

Now it's time to add some final details. Use a toothpick or a latte art pen to gently drag through the milk foam, starting from the top V shape and moving downwards. This will create the characteristic lines that make your heart look realistic. Be gentle and make soft, sweeping motions.
