The main difference between a latte and a cappuccino lies in their serving size and milk texture. A caffè latte is served in a larger glass (or cup) and consists of one or more shots of espresso with hot steamed milk added, without a layer of thick foam on top. In contrast, a cappuccino is served in a smaller cup and features a layer of thick foam over the milk. Consequently, a caffè latte is much milkier than a cappuccino, resulting in a milder coffee taste, while the cappuccino has a stronger coffee flavor due to its smaller milk volume and added foam [1].
