Why You’ll Love This Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
This isn’t just a fancy coffee topping — it’s fall in liquid form. With its smooth, velvety texture and the perfect hint of pumpkin spice, this Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam makes every sip feel like a warm autumn afternoon (even if you’re still in your pajamas).
It’s the kind of treat that reminds you to slow down and enjoy something special — without the need for long lines or pricey lattes.
Ingredients You’ll Need
You’ll be pleasantly surprised at how simple this is. Here’s everything you need:
- ½ cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin purée (pure pumpkin, not pie filling)
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- A small pinch of salt
- Cold brew or iced coffee as your base
How to Make Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
- Blend it up:
Add your heavy cream, pumpkin purée, maple syrup, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to a blender or frother. - Whip to perfection:
Blend for 20–30 seconds until it’s smooth, creamy, and lightly frothy — like a soft, golden cloud. - Pour it on:
Fill a glass with cold brew or iced coffee, leaving a little room on top. Slowly pour your pumpkin cream foam and watch it swirl beautifully into the coffee. - Add a finishing touch:
Sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon on top for that cozy, café look.
Emma’s Kitchen Moment
This recipe holds a special place in my heart. One chilly afternoon, I decided to skip the coffee run and recreate that same creamy, pumpkin-spiced goodness at home. After a few experiments (and a few too-frothy disasters), this version became my go-to.
Now, it’s my little morning ritual — a few minutes of calm before the chaos of the day. It’s amazing how something so simple can feel like self-care in a cup.
Helpful Tips for the Perfect Pumpkin Cream Cold Foam
- Adjust the sweetness: Love it sweeter? Add a little more maple syrup or even honey. Prefer it mild? Cut it back — your cup, your rules.
- No blender? Use a handheld frother or shake it up in a mason jar. You’ll get a mini arm workout and a delicious reward.
- Dairy-free option: Coconut cream or oat milk creamer make excellent substitutes — still frothy, still delicious.
- Storage tip: Keep any leftover pumpkin cream in the fridge for up to two days. Just give it a quick stir or shake before using again.
And if your foam isn’t perfectly picture-ready, don’t stress — the flavor will more than make up for it.
FAQs
Can I make this with regular coffee instead of cold brew?
Absolutely! Just let your brewed coffee cool before adding the foam.
Can I serve it warm?
Yes! Spoon the foam over a hot latte or cup of coffee — it melts into a creamy, pumpkin-scented layer.
Can I use non-dairy milk instead of heavy cream?
You sure can. Oat milk or coconut cream are great options for a dairy-free twist that still froths beautifully.
How do I make it thicker or lighter?
Blend longer for a thicker foam, or add a splash of milk for a lighter, silkier texture.
