조리법
-
1 - Prepare espresso:
Brew 60ml (2 shots) of fresh espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Set aside.
-
2 - Heat and Flavor Milk:
In a small saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream (optional), and vanilla bean paste. Warm over medium heat until hot but not boiling — about 70°C (160°F).
-
3 - Steam and Froth Milk:
Use a milk frother or whisk vigorously to create froth in the milk mixture. Maintain smooth microfoam without big bubbles.
-
4 - Sweeten Milk:
Whisk 3 tablespoons granulated sugar into hot milk mixture until fully dissolved.
-
5 - Combine Latte:
Pour brewed espresso evenly into two heatproof cups. Gently pour the sweetened and frothed milk over the espresso, filling cups to near top.
-
6 - Create Brûlée Topping:
Sprinkle on top a thin, even layer of the remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar (optional). Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until crisp and golden brown, forming a brûlée crust.

Belle Époque Brûlée Latte: A Delightful English Twist
This latte is inspired by the elegance and artistic brilliance of the Belle Époque era, blending rich espresso with smooth vanilla-infused milk and a unique brûlée caramelized sugar topping. Originating from England, this drink evokes a nostalgic sophistication perfect for afternoon indulgences or special gatherings.
The brûlée topping sets this latte apart from the traditional coffee drinks by providing a textural contrast—a top layer of crisp caramelized sugar that melts into the warm, milky espresso below. Using vanilla bean paste intensifies the vanilla notes, complementing the roasted espresso’s natural chocolate undertones.
Tips & Notes:
- For the best brûlée effect, use a small kitchen torch but a broiler in your oven can work as a substitute if carefully watched.
- Using whole milk with an optional splash of cream creates a luscious mouthfeel, reminiscent of classic café styles.
- Granulated and brown sugar combined for the topping adds color depth and subtle molasses hints.
- This drink pairs exceptionally with buttery shortbread or light sponge cakes.
Cultural Significance & History:
While the brûlée concept is traditionally French, blending it creatively with English-inspired lattes brings a Pan-European café experience that nods to the lavish Belle Époque period—a time marking grand art and emotions throughout Europe, including London’s own teeming cultural scene.
This drink is perfect for coffee lovers seeking a refined twist that’s visually stunning and delectably sweet with the satisfying burnt caramel top—a worthy centerpiece for any gathering or solo enjoyment.
Personal Thoughts:
Creating the Belle Époque Brûlée Latte is like weaving a little artistry into daily coffee breaks. It takes just minutes but offers a luxurious experience—that crackle of sugar turning gold recalling delicate dessert moments, yet paired with cozy caffeine warmth. Truly a celebration in a cup.
