How a Layered Heart Actually Works 💗

Step 1 — Build the base
• Fill the cup to about 40%
• Use an oval mixing motion
• Keep the cup tilted

Step 2 — Create the layers
• Start pouring from the upper 1/4
• Wiggle gently at 1 cm height
• Gradually straighten the cup while wiggling

Step 3 — Shape the heart
• Once it forms a half-circle, wiggle forward toward the center
• Let the base curl upward into a heart
• Lift the pitcher and cut through with a thin flow

How a Basic Swan Actually Works 🦢

Step 1 — Build the base
• Fill the cup to about 50%
• Start pouring from the center

Step 2 — Create the body
• Wiggle in the same spot until a semicircle shape forms
• Wiggle forward to let the base curl upward
• Wiggle back upward to build the wing structure

Step 3 — Shape the details
• Lift the pitcher and trace down the wing with a thin flow
• Lower the pitcher to create a white dot
• Finish with a soft reverse “S” motion and a small heart for the swan

Once the basic swan feels comfortable, it becomes much easier to branch into framed swans, slow swans and other variations later on ☕️

More latte art tutorials soon✨

Flow control makes all the difference ☕️🤏🏼

The Crocodile Spout and Double Arc Flow Channels give a really nice range from fine lines to wider swings.
