The story of the Dalgona coffee: a look behind the foam coffee
Dalgona coffee became a global phenomenon almost overnight, with roots deeply rooted in South Korean culture. The method of preparation was named after the traditional South Korean "Dalgona" sugar candy. It is known for its intensely sweet taste and unique porous texture, and Dalgona coffee, this seductively foamy variant, takes its inspiration from the striking similarity of the creamy topping to this popular candy. The name is a tribute to the origin and the characteristic taste that makes Dalgona coffee so special.
In the short time it has existed, the world has explored Dalgona coffee and reinvented it time and time again. From vegan to ice-cold versions – the versatility knows no bounds.

INGREDIENTS
You need:
- 1 capsule Espresso Fortissimo (approx. 40 ml espresso)
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 400 ml milk (can be replaced with any type of plant milk)
- ice cubes (optional)
Preparation:
Step 1: Prepare espresso
Prepare your espresso in your capsule machine. Allow the espresso to cool slightly to room temperature.
Step 2: Add sweet
Pour the cooled espresso into a bowl with the sugar. Experiment with the amount of sugar to adjust the sweetness to your taste.
Step 3: Mix IT
Beat the espresso-sugar mixture with a hand mixer or a whisk. Tip: Start at a lower speed and gradually increase until the mixture becomes thick, foamy and light brown.
Step 4: milk hits ice
Fill a glass up to three quarters full with cold milk and add ice cubes if desired. These provide additional refreshment and make your Dalgona coffee the ideal refreshing drink.
Enjoy Dalgona vegan
For those who prefer a plant-based alternative, Dalgona coffee can easily be prepared vegan. Simply choose your favorite plant-based milk for the foamed coffee - almond, oat, soy or coconut milk. The best thing: you don't have to worry about our organic coffee capsules because they are all vegan. This means you can experience the full enjoyment of Dalgona coffee without having to make any compromises.
Step 5: The final
Carefully spoon the whipped mixture onto the milk. The foam should float slightly on top of the milk, giving the Dalgona its characteristic appearance.
