Still, dreaming of that delicious flavor of Caramel Macchiato during your coffee breaks with friends at Starbucks? Well, I am showing you the typical recipe to enjoy at home, this exquisite coffee drink.
Macchiato caramel, a coffee drink with an intense taste
Coffee, one of the most popular drinks in France, became the protagonist of many sweet recipes, either in cakes or desserts with a spoon. Among the most famous, we can cite the classic tiramisu, the caramel macchiato, but also other preparations, such as the semifreddo, the Liège cream, the Irish Coffee, or even the café latte hit, and many other uses. Combined with milk, mascarpone, or Fromage blanc, it can become a cream and be included in every recipe, all it takes is a little imagination and creativity!
Coffee drinks are numerous, of different consistencies and preparations, but all equally good. However, you will have to choose a good ground coffee, balanced, 100% organic, and full of subtle aromas.
For my recipes containing coffee, I always use the Carte Noire brand. Why? Because it is the only firm in France to offer a completely organic range in mass distribution.
In addition, this brand of coffee offers several varieties with distinct intensity levels to suit all tastes. This characteristic will indeed allow you to diversify the flavors in your dessert without masking the flavor released by the other ingredients.
In my macchiato caramel recipe, I decided to use Carte Noire 100% arabica ground coffee, because for me it really is the benchmark when it comes to high-quality coffee.
Coffee lovers should strongly appreciate this very gourmet American coffee topped with cream to panic your taste buds.
