FAQs
Can I use regular milk instead of whole milk?
Whole milk is recommended because it balances the richness of the heavy cream and helps create better foam. Skim or low-fat milk may result in a thinner, less stable foam.
What beverages pair best with lavender cream cold foam?
This foam works beautifully over iced or hot coffee, latte, or even black or green tea. Its floral sweetness enhances the drink without overpowering it.
