Latte vs Cappuccino: What Is the Difference?

Many people order one without knowing the difference. Both start with espresso and milk, but the ratio changes everything.

Latte

More milk, creamier texture, milder coffee flavor. A latte is smooth and approachable — ideal for those who enjoy a gentler coffee experience.

Cappuccino

More foam, stronger coffee presence, lighter texture. A cappuccino lets the espresso shine through with a frothy, airy finish.

Final Thought

Neither is better. It simply depends on preference. Try both and let your taste guide you.
