So I decided to return to that same indie coffee shop and try again. Maneuvering through 2019 requires sitting in one's feelings and dissecting your issues. So I asked, “You do this thing with everyone who orders a macchiato, or just the people who aren’t your regulars?” Sheepishly, he fumbled his reply, leaving me to wonder, are my feelings valid, or am I being sensitive? May I enjoy my afternoon retreat without the chilly condescension-laced discourse on the difference between Starbucks and “real” coffee? “Especially if you’re not a regular.” Not a regular? I was in there at least once a week. One time, I asked the demure white barista, why the lecture? He looked puzzled, almost if I shouldn’t be asking a question.
Every time I sucked my teeth! My anger rushed to the bottom of feet and through the tips of my toes.
Macchiato starbucks how to#
You can use the caramel cake mix, vanilla pudding, and then an extra VIA.My first impulse was to call coffee profiling: They're thinking a Black woman with a southern accent in a fancy place doesn’t know how to order?!? Then it happened a few more times: at a popular, forever-crowded Nolita and SoHo Manhattan neighborhood establishment, at a Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn cafe, and at a Instagrammable Adams Morgan area hotel lobby in Washington, DC.
We’re hoping stores carry them again soon!! But in the meantime, here’s what we’d do: Duncan Hines makes a caramel cake mix. UPDATE: Many of our readers have been asking how to adjust this recipe because they can’t currently find the Royal Macchiato Instant Pudding Mix. See the recipe below for some amazing Caramel Macchiato Cupcakes! Several hours later the caramel looked just like when I put them together. After I frosted the cupcakes, I chilled them so they were cold when the I drizzled the caramel.
I love how the buttercream resembles a mound of whip, just like a frappe! I kept it a little more stiff than I normally would for cupcakes, but I wanted to make sure the frosting was stiff enough to hold up the caramel and it worked perfect. It’s a very quick and easy way to fill cupcakes. I used a decorating bag and my large cupcake tip, plunged it into each cake, and gave a small squeeze until I saw the cupcake swell just a little. The filling is very light… a light whipped cream with caramel sauce stirred in. I used basically the same amount of batter I would use in a normal cupcake liner.Īdding VIA instant coffee to the batter gives it that true Starbucks taste. The espresso cups are perfect cupcake size. I went to Starbucks and asked them if I could purchase some of their little sample espresso cups… they gave me a pack of 50 and assured me I did not need to pay for them! They also gave me plenty of straws, which I cut into thirds to stick in the tops of the cupcakes. Such a fun theme for a party!Ī friend recently asked me to make these little frappe cupcakes for her daughter’s 18th birthday party. It’ll taste great!Ī few years ago, my beautiful sisters threw a bridal shower for me… Starbucks themed!!! They put a whole lot of thought and time into it and there were so many little decorations and treats all to match the theme, from little candles on the table nestled in coffee beans, letting off an aroma of fresh coffee in the air, to a big streamer made of coffee filters, to a huge ‘custom drinks’ coffee bar, to several copycat recipe Starbucks treats. You can use the caramel cake mix, vanilla pudding, and then an extra VIA. MAKE THESE AMAZING STARBUCKS CARAMEL MACCHIATO CUPCAKES FOR THE COFFEE LOVER IN YOUR LIFE!
