What is Cream Cheese Foam Coffee?
Cream cheese, sweetener, whipping cream, half and half and sea salt is beaten together until thick and topped over freshly brewed coffee.
How do you recommend brewing coffee?
To brew the most aromatic and strong coffee, use a french press, siphon or drip filter coffee. Instant coffee works as well!
Any tips on making this cream cheese foam coffee recipe?
- If making iced coffee, make the coffee stronger to avoid too much dilution from the ice. Or instead, use a cold brew based coffee.
- Do not mix the foam topping, instead the proper way to drink this is by sipping the coffee with the foam on top.

Great recipe! I tried to make 1 serving in my ninja single smoothie blender and it did NOT work out but I’m excited to try it again with a hand mixer
Hey Susie! Happy to hear you liked the recipe! Yeah, a blender probably won’t ‘aerate’ the heavy cream to foam it up.
The batch of cream cheese foam. How long will it last in the fridge ?
Hello Myrna! It will last around 3-4 days.
many boboa shops call this a “Milk Cap” I personally was unaware how easy it is to make, so thank you for the recipe and instructions!
Hey Kristen – didn’t know that! Thanks for the info and you are welcome!
I LOVED THIS! I am a crema boba fan and a starbucks salted caramel cream fan and this hit the spot. AND it’s low carb!
I made a 1/2 batch since I didn’t want too much leftover. Husband approved! We dipped strawberries into all the leftover foam and it was delicious! Thank you for the recipe.
Hey Ann – So glad you enjoyed the recipe and you are very welcome! Thanks for the comment!
