REVIEW: International Delight Cold Foam Creamer

[ad_1]

Look at me! I’m a barista! I’m making fancy-looking coffee drinks with my cheap ground coffee and International Delight’s Cold Foam Creamer. Maybe I should start a Marbucks?

The cold foam in a can comes in three varieties — French Vanilla, Sweet & Creamy, and Caramel Macchiato. I was only able to pick up the latter two.

Of course, the most important question you might be thinking is: Did I shoot it into my mouth like whipped cream? No, of course not. I’m a grown man with loans and someone I can claim as a dependent on my taxes, so I won’t use my hands to spray this cold foam into my mouth. I let my dependent do that. Although it’s not as saccharine as drinking liquid creamer, it’s still quite sweet, and spraying it into my mouth is something I won’t ask my dependent to do again.

Both flavors I tried are delightful. The Caramel one has a mild flavor but is still noticeable with coffee. And the Sweet & Creamy one is, well, sweet and creamy. Think of it as having roughly the same flavor as liquid sweet cream creamers on the market. If I pick this up again, I’d get the Sweet & Creamy one.

But I’m not sure I’d repurchase International Delight’s Cold Foam Creamer because if I got addicted to it, it would get pricey quickly. You see, there are FORTY 2 tablespoon servings per container according to the nutrition label, but because I use a lot of creamer, I made the foam layer thiccc. That resulted in me getting about six or seven servings per can.

When I did drink my coffee with it, I liked to shovel some of the foam in my mouth with my top lip and then follow it up with some hot liquid. It ended up being the right balance of foam and coffee. I let the cold foam completely melt away a couple of times, which ended up tasting like any other java drink I’ve made with liquid creamer. It was fun to watch it cascade down the sides of my clear mug and into the hot coffee, and it took a long time to disappear because, again, I made my layers thiccc.

I like International Delight’s Cold Foam Creamer but can’t see it as a regular purchase. I’d rather buy a big ol’ jug of liquid coffee creamer to make my morning caffeine tolerable. It would last longer, and besides, most of the time, I drink my coffee out of an insulated, not-see-through travel mug, so I wouldn’t be able to see the foam layer.
