Workshop of coffee making and Latte Art
5A Lee Wing Ki
I am so happy I could take part in the workshop of coffee making and Latte art. This was my first time to join this activity. Before I joined this workshop, I was looking forward to knowing what we will do. On this valuable experience, I learnt about different kinds of coffee beans. In addition, we made various images of Latte art, such as a heart and a swan, by using cream and foamed milk. I had never done it before. It was very difficult to make perfect Latte art, although I tried so many times to do it well. We also made a dessert which is called Serradura, it is very common in Hong Kong, because it is very easy to make. I enjoyed the workshop very much and would consider becoming a barista for my future job. Also, I learned that a coffee maker is called a barista. If you join this activity, you will learn more new skills about coffee making.

On 25 October(Thursday), we went to the Tsim Sha Tsui YMCA to have two classes on how to make a good latte and how to make a dessert called Serradura. I was delighted that it was my first time to make the dessert with my friends and it was just a piece of cake, everyone can do it by themselves. However, I think one of the difficulties is how to manage the time well when stirring in the cream. Later on, we had a lesson about how to make a good latte. Actually, ’latte’ is a word means ’coffee’ in some Western countries and its name comes from Italy. Soon, we had lots of practices about how to make a good latte and we tried to make some patterns on top of the coffee. It was my first time to make patterns and I felt it was difficult for me to strike a balance between coffee and milk, still I enjoyed making it and I drank two cups of it, too. Therefore, I felt so grateful that I could learn how to make a good latte and dessert. I am looking forward to going on the next outing and learning about different topics and learning in a different way.
