  • Granulated sugar – 3 tablespoons (40 g)
  • Heavy whipping cream – 1⅓ cups (300 g)

How to Make Coffee Cream at Home – Step by Step :

To prepare homemade coffee cream, start by brewing a strong batch of coffee using your Italian moka pot—you’ll need ⅓ cup (70 g). Once brewed, add 3 tablespoons (40 g) of sugar and mix well until fully dissolved. Let the coffee cool at room temperature, then place it in the fridge for at least 2 hours to chill completely. After chilling, pour the heavy whipping cream into a pre-chilled mixing bowl, ready for the next step.

Start whisking the chilled heavy cream using an electric mixer on medium speed. Once it’s half-whipped—meaning it has just started to thicken—slowly pour in the sweetened, chilled coffee from the refrigerator. Continue beating the mixture until it becomes smooth, creamy, and fully combined.

Continue whisking until the mixture reaches a soft, whipped cream consistency—light, airy, and smooth. Once ready, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors set. After chilling, your homemade coffee cream is ready to serve—perfect for topping coffee, desserts, or enjoying by the spoonful!

Tips :

  • Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or unsweetened cocoa powder on top for an extra burst of flavor.
  • Serve your coffee cream in small glasses for a delicious dessert treat.
  • Use it as a rich filling for croissants or other pastries to elevate your breakfast or snack.

Making your own coffee cream at home is simple and rewarding. With just a few ingredients and easy steps, you can enjoy a rich, creamy addition that elevates your coffee experience. Whether you prefer it sprinkled with cinnamon, served as a dessert, or used in pastries, this versatile coffee cream is sure to become a favorite.
